Liverpool are exploring the prospect of prising Christian Pulisic away from Chelsea.

BILD football chief Christian Falk is reporting Liverpool are interested in Pulisic “as replacement for Sadio Mane".

The American has struggled to cement a starting place under Thomas Tuchel, leaving the winger frustrated in West London.

Whilst on international duty this week, Pulisic said: “Of course, I want to get more playing time. I think I still got a lot of games, but it's always something that I'm working at and trying to be a regular at club level. “

Mane is expected to leave Anfield for Bayern Munich, so opening the door for Pulisic to move north from London.
