Liverpool want to be more ambitious in the transfer market going forward after being a bit too dithering in the previous summer when fans felt the club dropped the ball.
The Reds are clearly looking at strengthening their midfield options and signing a defensive midfielder is said to be a priority in the winter transfer window.
However, the club are likely to invest in their midfield next summer as well and the club are tracking several midfielders with a view to making some major movements at the end of the season.
Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes and his recruitment team are working hard behind the scenes to identify potential targets in the coming months.
However, the club could go back to a player they wanted to sign a couple of years back and pushed hard to convince him to move to Anfield until he decided to go somewhere else.
A blast from the past target for the Reds
Aurelien Tchouameni is a player that Jurgen Klopp admired and the former Liverpool manager pushed to take him to Anfield a couple of years back.
However, the French midfielder decided to snub the interest from Liverpool to sign for Real Madrid in the summer of 2022.
However, Tchouameni is currently struggling at the Santiago Bernabeu and has been attracting criticism for his performances.
It has been claimed that Real Madrid are considering moving on the player in the upcoming transfer windows.
According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, Liverpool have rekindled their interest in the French midfielder.
The Reds remain firm admirers of the player and would be keen to take him to Anfield if he becomes available in the near future.
Can you name the club Liverpool signed these players from?
Liverpool believe that the midfielder has the physical and the technical ability to excel in the Premier League.
He could cost as much as £50m but the Reds are not worried about the price if they can get their hands on him.
However, they are unlikely to have a clear run at him as French champions Paris Saint-Germain also have their eyes on Tchouameni.
More clubs are expected to get into the mix if it becomes clear that Real Madrid are prepared to entertain offers for the Frenchman next summer.
