Fabrizio Romano has claimed that a centre-back will be targeted, while David Ornstein says a wide forward is also on the agenda.
As well as those two positions though, you’d imagine that Liverpool may also be looking at bolstering their midfield again.
With Wataru Endo seemingly up for sale, defensive midfield is certainly an area that should be addressed.
And with that in mind, Liverpool are said to be targeting a player who impressed against them recently.

Aside from Endo, Liverpool’s midfield isn’t in bad shape really.
Thiago Alcantara will leave but after playing just five minutes all season, he’ll hardly need replacing.
Ryan Gravenberch has been rumoured to be a target for Turkish sides, but it seems more likely that the Dutchman will stay under his compatriot.

So, if Liverpool do add to their squad, it should be a more defensive minded midfielder.
There are a number of players being linked with filling out such a role, but perhaps the strongest rumours have come with regards to Teun Koopmeiners.
They claim that after following the 26-year-old ‘for some time,’ the Reds were ‘impressed’ with his displays during last month’s Europa League quarter-final.
As a result, Liverpool are said to be ready to make a move for Koopmeiners.
Atalanta will reportedly be looking for at least £51m to sell their star midfielder.
There had been plenty of hype already about Koopmeiners before Liverpool took on Atalanta.
But other than fluffing his lines there it was an accomplished showing.
In our opinion the Netherlands international isn’t quite what Liverpool need at this moment and his price-tag is a little high, too.
