Keita Balde

Liverpool want to sign a Monaco forward, but this time it’s not Thomas Lemar it’s Keita Balde, who has only just joined the club.

The Birmingham Mail reported that their sporting director has marked Balde as the next man to move on as part of their buy low, sell high policy.

Napoli also want the player, who joined Monaco in the summer from Lazio, but so do Arsenal – meaning the Reds will have to fight for his signature.

With the squad looking like it needs some inspiration following the departure of Coutinho, could this move be on?
