Lille offer €80M Nicolas Pepe to Liverpool

Lille have offered Nicolas Pepe to Liverpool.

The Ivory Coast striker has been linked with Tottenham, Bayern Munich and Arsenal.

But L'Equipe says Lille have offered Pepe to Liverpool in recent days - and Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is eager to see the deal happen.

LOSC want €80m to sell, with 10 per cent of the fee due to Pepe's former club Angers.

Lille and Pepe hope to see the Liverpool move done before the African Cup of Nations kicks off on June 21.

For his part, Klopp is a fan of Pepe, who scored 22 goals last season.
