Liverpool have joined the pursuit for Lille star Nicolas Pepe.

The Ivory Coast international will be sold by LOSC at the end of the season with president Gerard Lopez accepting it is time to cash in.

Le 10 Sport says Liverpool are now showing serious interest in Pepe.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is eager to add another attacker to his squad, with Daniel Sturridge due to leave this summer, and Pepe is now on his radar.

Lille are seeking at least €70-80m to sell the attacker.
