Andoni Iraola has been informed about how much he may need to pay to secure one of Liverpool's reported targetsAndoni Iraola may need to exceed the £100million mark for the first time in his managerial tenure if he wishes to land a reported Liverpool target. The Spaniard has already brought in Victor Munoz from Osasuna this summer, but has yet to add further new faces.The absence of activity following the capture of the Spain international is not due to a shortage of targets, as the Reds have been connected with players throughout their defence, midfield and attack.Amongst the players the Premier League outfit have been linked with, Yan Diomande has received guidance should he leave RB Leipzig this summer, while the Lille president has suggested an asking price for Ayyoub Bouaddi.



You have to look at his level."How much have players like Anderson or Tonali been sold for, who are much older [23 and 26 respectively], but without room for improvement, so you have an idea of the value of Ayyoub, who has a unique profile at only 18 years old."Letang added: "Many clubs are interested in him, but very few can afford him right now. He's already one of the best midfielders in the world and still has significant room for improvement.

He's only 18 and has his whole future ahead of him."Diomande transfer suggestionThe future of Yan Diomande remains deeply uncertain, though the latest counsel he has received could prove to be welcome news for Liverpool supporters. Former Reds favourite Joe Cole has urged the Ivorian to turn a deaf ear to advances from PSG, despite reports suggesting the winger has earmarked the French giants as his preferred destination should he depart RB Leipzig this summer."There's a lot of top-level wingers in world football right now, but Diomande is as good as I've seen; he's so explosive," Cole said, via Paddy Power.
