Liverpool are ready to get serious about Napoli defender Kim Min-jae.

The South Korea international has been outstanding in his first season with Napoli, as they hunt down the Serie A title.

Kim's form has brought him to the attention of PSG, says Foot Mercato, with Liverpool now also formalising their interest.

The Reds have made contact with Kim's management team to alert him of their plans for the summer market.

Interestingly, while Napoli rate Kim in the €90m class, he can leave for €53m over the first two weeks of July courtesy of a clause in his contract.
