Dominik Szoboszlai has moved up Liverpool’s list for their midfield rebuild after the club met with his representatives.
The 22-year-old, also heavily tracked by Newcastle United, has a €70m (£60m) release clause in his RB Leipzig contract, which is understood to expire on June 30.
The Hungarian’s comfort in playing across the midfield, his impressive chance creation metrics, and ball-carrying ability fits the profile Liverpool are after.

Image: Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella is wanted by Liverpool
Liverpool are navigating the biggest shake up of Jurgen Klopp’s tenure at a time when the market – especially for midfielders – is severely inflated, and without Champions League revenue or a big player sale to help.
Affordability, availability, and the appetite to restore Liverpool as a domestic and European force are the core factors being assessed.

The Reds secured Alexis Mac Allister at the start of June for an initial fee of around £35m in the type of shrewd transfer that had marked them out as recruitment leaders.
