Liverpool could be set to miss out on one of their summer transfer window targets, with PSG now leading the race, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The Reds are preparing for a big summer window after a disappointing season in the Premier League.
Liverpool are also entering a new era after it was confirmed that Andoni Iraola would take over from Arne Slot ahead of the new season.
The Merseyside club will be looking to back the new manager with reinforcements, especially with the former Bournemouth boss having a unique style of play.
Iraola style is more high-pressing and energetic than Slot, which could require different profiles of players.

According to a report from Fabrizio Romano, Paris Saint-Germain are now leading the race ahead of two Premier League clubs for Monaco talent Maghnes Akliouche.
Reports claimed less than a month ago that Liverpool were showing strong interest in signing the French star in a deal worth around £60 million.
Akliouche, described as 'insane', is expected to move this summer, with 'talks and approaches intensifying', according to Romano.
