Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits he's a big fan of Leicester City star Riyad Mahrez.

Klopp was happy to talk up Mahrez's transfer rumours yesterday.

He said: "(Mahrez) is a fantastic player to be honest.

"I can imagine a lot of clubs are interested in him. The fact he is still there shows obviously that somebody at Leicester convinced him. So, a very important player for them, 100 per cent."

Mahrez has been linked with the Reds as they seek an attacking midfield signing next month.
