The bid has been described as a ‘good offer’ although the figure has not been reported. Galatasaray are certainly serious about the move, though, with vice president Erden Timur travelling to Liverpool to try and get the deal done.

The Reds are making big changes to their midfield this summer, with the arrivalsof the Argentina and Hungary internationals, while there has been a string of departures.

James Milner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita have all left on free transfers, while youngsters Harvey Elliott and Curtis Jones are set to continue their rise to prominence in the Reds midfield in the coming season.
