da prosport bet: According to The Independent, Liverpool want to sign Newcastle United’s Jamaal Lascelles or Burnley’s James Tarkowski in this summer’s transfer window.
da brdice: Indeed, it is being reported that Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp wants to sign at least one new centre-back this summer, and Lascelles and Tarkowski are believed to be under consideration by the Champions League finalists.
Lascelles, 24, was excellent for Newcastle during the 2017-18 campaign, and Chelsea are also said to be admirers of the towering centre-back.
It seems that Newcastle will find it difficult to keep the Englishman on a long-term basis, and the Magpies could well be tested by Liverpool during this summer’s window.

The Liverpool fans have been reacting to suggestions of interest in Lascelles, and there are a number that would welcome the central defender ahead of the new season.
That said, there are also those who have doubted whether Lascelles, who is valued at £6.3m by transfermarkt.co.uk, is good enough to represent a top-four team.
