Reds face competition for Croatian starlet
Liverpool face competition from AC Milan and Juventus for Croatian forward Marko Pjaca.
Jurgen Klopp has been keeping a close watch on the Dinamo Zagreb man since he took over at Anfield in October and wants Liverpool to make a bid this summer.
The 21-year-old hit six goals in the final two months of last season for his club to cement his place in the Croatia national team for the Euro 2016 and attract further interest from Liverpool.
An offer of around £14m is set to be enough to persuade Dinamo into selling their young star, but Liverpool have yet to meet that asking price and now have to beat two other clubs to his signature.
According to Sky Italia, AC Milan and Juventus both sent scouts to Croatia's 2-1 win over Spain last week and were impressed by Pjaca's display.
The two Italian heavyweights are now ready to make contact with Dinamo in the coming weeks, with a bidding war against Liverpool becoming increasingly likely.
