Liverpool join duo in race to sign striker
Liverpool, Everton and Newcastle reportedly all have an interest in Angers striker Nicolas Pepe.
The 21-year-old has scored just two goals this season for the 19th placed side in Ligue 1.
But the Ivorian has interest from several clubs and could leave in the final days of the transfer window.
According to French newspaper L’Equipe, the English trio are keen on Pepe.
The Ivory Coast forward has been at the Africa Cup of Nations, but the holders were knocked out of the tournament yesterday which would allow him to return to France to complete a move.
It is claimed any deal for Pepe could cost around £8.5million (10m euros) and talks are expected to begin soon.
