The same report states that the reds have turned to the Barcelona goalie after suffering setbacks in their pursuits of top transfer targets Jan Oblak of Atletico Madrid and Roma’s Alisson.

The Reds are likely to be in the market for a number of recruits this summer transfer window as German boss Jurgen Klopp looks to assemble a team capable of winning the English topflight league title next term.
