Liverpool favourites to land centre-back

Liverpool have reportedly emerged as favourites to land Burnley defender Michael Keane.

It is claimed that the Reds have now registered a formal interest in the 24-year-old centre-back after Everton and Manchester United stepped-up their interest.

The suggestions are that Keane could cost Liverpool up to £30million if they manage to beat off the competition to secure his signature.

Liverpool are also interested in Southampton centre-back Virgil van Dijk (25) but he could cost as much as £50million and as the Premier League’s Big Guns appear to be very keen on him, that could prove a major problem for Kop boss Jürgen Klopp.

We would advise that you monitor reports concerning both players until their futures are determined.
