Jurgen Klopp is considering a £20million bid for Schalke midfielder Weston McKennie after sending scouts to watch the American starlet in action.
The 20-year-old has caught the eye in the Bundesliga after arriving from Dallas Juniors in 2016, chalking up 45 first-team appearances for Die Konigsblauen.
Liverpool are currently well-stocked in the midfield department though following the summer arrivals of Fabinho and Naby Keita, but McKennie's versatility is attractive to Klopp.
