Liverpool have made a shock move for Wataru Endo as Jurgen Klopp looks to bring in an experienced holding midfielder.
The Reds have made an offer of around £16m to Stuttgart for the 30-year-old who can also fill in at centre-back.
It follows their unsuccessful attempts to bring in Moises Caiceido and Romeo Lavia.
Wataru Endo wasn't the name I was expecting to be linked with Liverpool but a smart move tbh if another midfielder comes in too. #lfc pic.twitter.com/8uXVjz9tXN
