Konrad Laimer 'open' to Premier League move amid Liverpool transfer links

RB Leipzig midfielder Konrad Laimer is reportedly 'open' to a move to the Premier League amid interest from Liverpool.

The Austrian was the subject of a reported move from the Reds very late on in the summer transfer window, but the attempt to sign Laimer came too late from Jurgen Klopp.

After a poor start to the new season, Liverpool's decision to sign a new midfielder in the summer looks to have backfired as they look for reinforcements in the January window.

Laimer is into the final year of his contract at Leipzig and the Bundesliga club could look to cash in on a player they are set to see leave for nothing in the summer.

The 25-year-old is also attracting interest from Manchester United with Erik Ten Hag a fan of the Austrian international, but 90min have reported Klopp is keen on bringing him to Anfield.

A move in January wouldn't be out of the question with Laimer only having six months remaining on his contract, meaning a high transfer fee would not be demanded by Leipzig.
