Liverpool have been named as one of the clubs interested in Turkiye star Baris Alper Yilmaz.

Multiple reports have claimed that a Premier League move beckons for the 24-year-old with interest from Germany and Italy, as well as England.

Elsewhere, Chelsea and the Reds are reportedly considering a move for Borussia Dortmund attacker Karim Adeyemi.

According to reports in Germany, the Reds are among several clubs interested in the winger. The Bundesliga giants are said to be not openly looking for a sale but after a topsy-turvy season, they would consider offloading the forward for over €30million (£25m).

Benfica starlet Joao Neves is a name that won’t go away for Liverpool too. There are claims out of Portugal that Liverpool have held talks with the Liga Portugal club over the 19-year-old.

However, the tough negotiators have slapped a £102million release clause on the midfielder and face stiff competition with Manchester United, Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain all said to be interested.

Liverpool are also said to be leading the race to sign highly-rated Rio Ngumoha. The 15-year-old has reportedly turned down an extension at Chelsea in order to switch to Merseyside.

Elsewhere, in Turkey, there are reports that Liverpool have began working on a deal to sign Baris Alper Yilmaz in light of his Euro 2024 displays. The 24-year-old scored seven goals and added 12 assists for Galatasaray and came up against two Liverpool players last week as Turkiye exited the competition in the last eight.

On Tuesday night, Ibrahima Konate’s France will be hoping to book their place in the European Championships final as they take on Spain. England, with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez in the camp, face Virgil van Dijk and Cody Gakpo’s Holland on Wednesday in Dortmund.
