Liverpool’s transfer business appeared to be over after the Reds secured the signing of Allison from AS Roma last weekend, however, and injury to Joel Matip has necessitated a new foray into the transfer market.
The Reds have reportedly set their sights on signing Croatia’s World Cup star, Demagoj Vida before the season starts.
Vida was a partner of Dejan Lovren as the Croatians stormed to the World Cup final in Russia earlier this month and he has been attracting the attention of several top teams.
Besiktas signed him for free from Dynamo Kiev in the January transfer window, but they are said to be holding out for a fee of around £27 million after his exploits in Russia.
West Ham have also reportedly joined the race for his signature, with Fulham also reportedly keen on adding the experienced defender to their ranks, but Liverpool would be hoping they can complete the transfer soon ahead of the Hammers.
