ADAM LALLANA is reportedly a shock transfer target for Paris Saint-Germain – in a move which could see Ryan Fraser join Anfield.
The Sunday Mirror claim PSG are considering a move for the Liverpool midfielder to replace Edinson Cavani should he move to the MLS.
Adam Lallana could be replaced by Ryan Fraser at Liverpool as PSG target the Reds ace
Cavani has been linked with a move to Inter Miami and SunSport exclusively revealed David Beckham has been picking up the phone ringing world stars begging them to join his new club.
Reports also claim the Uruguay striker is on his way to LA Galaxy to fill Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s boots.
Lallana, 31, is available for free at the end of the season and is able to negotiate with other clubs in January.
The England midfielder has struggled with injury over the last 12 months and has played just five Premier League games this season as he has struggled to break into the team.
Liverpool may choose to release the £135,000-a-week benchwarmer to free up funds for other transfer targets.
Bournemouth assist king Fraser has been linked with a move to both the Reds and Arsenal and is also available for nothing in the summer.
And offloading Lallana would more than cover the Scot’s reported £100k-a-week wage demands.
Fraser made the second most assists in the Prem last season with 14 – one behind Eden Hazard – and has two so far this term.
Red Ryan
Liverpool signed Lallana from Southampton in 2014 for £25million.
His only goal this season came against Manchester United in October, scoring a late equaliser to maintain Jurgen Klopp’s unbeaten run in the Premier League.
PSG are not the only team interested in Lallana with clubs in the Chinese Super League and MLS reportedly keeping tabs.
Lallana started ahead of Naby Keita in place of Fabinho against Aston Villa as Klopp rested the Brazilian to stop him picking up a fifth yellow card of the season and ban before their win over Manchester City.
The German claimed it was a no-brainer to bring the England ace into the starting lineup.
He said: “It was not so difficult because we had a look at the things we needed against Villa and I think you saw how good Adam Lallana worked in that system.
“It’s a game (Villa) where we had a lot of possession. We had to see how Adam recovered from midweek, but at the moment he is fine. The decision was not so difficult.
“Adam did really well, he played a really good game. In a game like this, you need that kind of deeper playmaker. That’s how it is.
“From that position, pass the ball, chip the ball, all that stuff. And he did that. He had a lot of ball recoveries, was good in the air, it was a good game.”
