Liverpool plan to use Fabinho sale to beat Chelsea for Pulisic deal

Liverpool chiefs are prepared to cash in on Fabinho in January.

The Mirror says Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is determined to win a £70million battle with Chelsea for Borussia Dortmund's USA sensation Christian Pulisic.

Any transfer could be subsidised by the departure of Brazilian Fabinho who has failed to make an impact since joining in the summer for £43.7m from Monaco.

It's why Liverpool could consider cashing in early on the midfielder with interest from AC Milan and Juventus.

It appears Chelsea have become Liverpool's biggest rivals for Pulisic's signature.

But an Anfield source said: “Having watched Christian develop there is no way Jurgen is going to back off now. He knows he is a talent who can light up the Premier League."
