Liverpool are reportedly considering making an offer to sign Real Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni in the summer transfer window, according to reports in Spain.
The Reds are going through a tricky spell on the pitch at the moment, and that could lead to them having another big transfer window to try to steer themselves back in the right direction.
Liverpool face a fight to qualify for Champions League football, with Arne Slot's side falling off a cliff following their Premier League title triumph last term.
The Merseyside outfit spent significantly last summer, but it's taking time for some of their new recruits to settle in at Anfield.
Liverpool could need reinforcements in a host of different positions, with Mohamed Salah confirming he will be departing, while the likes of Andy Robertson and Ibrahima Konate are set to be out of contract.

According to Marca, via Sport Witness, Liverpool are one of the sides showing an interest in signing Real Madrid midfielder Tchouameni ahead of the summer transfer window.
It's claimed that the Reds are considering making an offer to secure his signature, but they face competition from Manchester United.
The French international, who has been described as 'the best defensive midfielder in the world', is believed to be tempted by a potential move to the Premier League this summer, but Madrid are hoping to keep him in the Spain.
The Spanish giants are looking to offer Tchouameni a new three-year extension on his contract, and Madrid consider him indispensable.

Bringing Tchouameni would be a huge coup for the Reds if they can get a deal over the line in the summer transfer window.
Slot's side are struggling at the moment, and they arguably need reinforcements all over the pitch, including in the middle of the park.
The likes of Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch haven't hit the levels we've seen from them previously this season, and Tchouameni would walk into their midfield at the moment.
It won't be easy for the Reds to convince Madrid into the sale, but as he's tempted by a potential move to Liverpool, it's certainly worth them trying to make a move.
