Liverpool may be granted a transfer advantage from the most unexpected of sources this summer, as Jurgen Klopp seeks to fully rebuild his Anfield midfield. Multiple targets have been identified, following the exits of James Milner, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain - despite the recent arrival of Brighton star Alexis Mac Allister. The one name that continually crops up is that of Khephren Thuram, the young France prodigy and son of legendary World Cup winner Lillian Thuram. Thuram is one of the most highly-rated emerging players on the continent, and Liverpool have reportedly touched base with his club Nice on several occasions to sound out the logistics of a move. So far the two clubs appear to be at a stalemate, but an unlikely Manchester United link could very quickly make all the pieces move in the same direction.
