Liverpool’s midfield has emerged as a massive talking point under Andoni Iraola.
The Reds were expected to add to their options in the centre of the park this summer, but somehow, they decided against it despite selling Curtis Jones to Inter Milan.
However, in the summer transfer window, Lamine Camara was heavily linked with a move to Liverpool.
He was also very close to joining Chelsea on deadline day before Monaco pulled the plug on the deal.
And now, Ben Jacobs reports that the young midfielder wants to move to the Premier League in 2027, with a January transfer not ruled out.
Liverpool target Lamine Camara wants Premier League
Writing on GiveMeSport, Jacobs confirmed that the Reds are among the clubs interested in signing him next year, especially after Chelsea’s relationship with Monaco broke down on deadline day.
An excerpt from the article reads: “The handling of the Camara situation has led to a broken relationship between Chelsea and Monaco, and there is no guarantee the Blues will return the player in 2027.
[🟢] NEW: Liverpool are club to watch for Lamine Camara.
Sources have told GMS that senior Liverpool figures made a series of calls, including on deadline day, to inform Camara he was high in their thinking for 2027 if he didn't join Chelsea.

“Liverpool are another Premier League club to watch. Sources have told GMS that senior Liverpool figures made a series of calls, including on deadline day, to inform Camara he was high in their thinking for 2027 if he didn’t join Chelsea.
“Liverpool never intended to add another midfielder following the departure of Curtis Jones to Inter. The only way they would have bid for Camara over the summer is if Alexis Mac Allister had departed.
“Camara still dreams of making a move to the Premier League and leaving Monaco in January is not discounted.”
Chelsea agreed a €55m deal for Camara before Monaco pulled the plug, so it remains to be seen whether a similar offer can convince the Ligue 1 side to sell in January or next summer.
