Boss Jurgen Klopp is delving into the transfer market to land a replacement for Georginio Wijnaldum.

The Dutchman appears to be heading to Barcelona on a free transfer with his contract expiring.

According to Bild journalist Christian Falk, Neuhaus is eyed as the ideal man to fill his boots and the feeling the mutual.

He has a £34million release clause in his contract and the 24-year-old is a huge admirer of Klopp.

Neuhaus joined Borussia Monchengladbach in 2017 and has emerged as a key player in the midfield over the last three seasons.

He has come to the fore this season and has also attracted the attention of Bayern Munich.

Neuhaus’ defensive qualities make him an ideal like-for-like replacement for Wijnaldum.

Liverpool may have to tighten the purse strings this summer with the serious risk of missing out on Champions League football.

But it is not likely to put them off from making a move for the Germany international.

Liverpool are also being linked with a move for Brighton’s Yves Bissouma.

The midfielder has been tipped for a big move after impressing at the Amex since his £15m arrival from Lille three years ago.
