Acheampong, who can also be deployed as a left-back, is under contract until 2019 but could be available for as little as £6million, suggest reports.

Sunderland and Newcastle United have previously been linked with the player who should be involved at the Africa Cup of Nations which gets underway next month.

Liverpool will lose Sadio Mané to the competition as he’s part of the Senegal squad but Joël Matip has turned down the opportunity to turn out for Cameroon.

• The player’s former girlfriend claimed in 2014 that Acheampong is actually 10 years older than he claims
