Liverpool are prioritising a deal for Bayern Munich midfielder Ryan Gravenberch this summer.

The Times says Liverpool have made Gravenberch their No1 midfield target after being priced out of the battle for Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham.

Liverpool officials were in Holland over the weekend for talks with Gravenberch's father.

The 20 year-old left Ajax for Bayern last summer, but has struggled for minutes in his first season in Germany.

Bayern are open to selling Gravenberch, knowing they could pocket a £4m profit with the projected price-tag standing at £25m.

In Holland, Gravenberch's versatility has seen him compared with Dutch great Frank Rijkaard.
