In one of his recent interviews as monitored by FourFourTwo, Kai Havertz talked up Bayern Munich as an attractive proposition.

Jurgen Klopp has discussed the possibility of signing Kai Havertz with the Liverpool board according to The Guardian.

The transfer would definitely break the Liverpool transfer record which stands at £75m for the signing of Virgil Van Dijk from Southampton two years ago.

Liverpool will need to pay £100m to sign Kai Havertz who could be the replacement for Philippe Coutinho.

The Reds have not signed a proper playmaker since Coutinho left the club in January 2018.

Liverpool have already made one signing this year with the swoop for Japanese attacker Takumi Minamino and might need to wait till the summer for Kai Havertz.
