As Liverpool prepare for a rebuild this summer, the Merseyside club are paying particular attention to AS Monaco. As well as taking an interest in France international Maghnes Akliouche (24), they may also table a bid for midfielder Lamine Camara (22) this summer, as per a report from L’Équipe.
Since joining Monaco from FC Metz two years ago, the Senegal international has excelled at Monaco and was one of the key players for Senegal at the recent Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). Like Akliouche, Camara is one of the players that will be allowed to leave the club in the event that the Principality club’s valuation is met this summer.
There is interest from Liverpool, L’Équipe understands, whilst Newcastle United, a more long-term admirer, remain in the race as the summer transfer window approaches. He features particularly highly on the Tyneside club’s shortlist. The midfielder’s contract at Monaco runs until 2029.
