Liverpool fans appear to be enjoying their Bank Holiday Monday and why wouldn’t they when they considering the club have been linked with a record bid for Thomas Lemar?
The 21-year-old is another one of Monaco’s star performers from last season, scoring nine league goals and creating 10 in the team’s Ligue 1 title triumph.
It’s a rumour which unsurprisingly has excited many Reds and there is the added bonus that Premier League rivals Arsenal have been linked with Lemar all summer.
Having thumped the Gunners 4-0 recently, signing one of their targets before the transfer deadline on 31 August would really rub salt into the wounds.
However, any deal could also mean Philippe Coutinho is sold to Barcelona.
