Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has big plans for Udinese ace Rodrigo de Paul.

Sportmediaset reports Klopp sees the Udinese midfielder as key to rebuilding his team, with the Argentine in line to replace Gini Wijnaldum.

De Paul has many interested teams chasing his signature but the report claims Klopp wants to build his team around the midfielder and is 'crazy' about him.

Udinese would want €40m to consider selling De Paul, who has already made it clear he wants to leave and play in the Champions League and has admitted he would find an offer from Liverpool'really irresistible'.
