Liverpool still keen on Thomas Lemar

Jurgen Klopp is set to return for Thomas Lemar in the summer after facing rejection the last time around. Liverpool had made a bid of around £78 million last summer which was instantly rejected by AS Monaco.

But the 22-year-old has recently rejected a new contract offer from the French club which has alerted Liverpool to renew their efforts to try and bring Lemar to Anfield next season, the Independent reports.
