Liverpool are in talks with Barcelona midfielder Andre Gomes about a summer move.

Gomes is expected to leave Barca at the end of this season, having failed to find a place in coach Ernesto Valverde's midfield this season.

Tuttosport says AC Milan are in talks with Gomes' minders - but have learned Liverpool are already in advanced negotiations with the Portugal international.

Liverpool see Gomes as a replacement for Philippe Coutinho after his departure for Barca in January.

It's also suggested Liverpool have accepted Emre Can will leave this summer and so see Gomes' arrival as crucial to cover their midfield options.
