Liverpool are reportedly keeping tabs on Inter Milan defender Andrea Ranocchia.

TalkSPORT is reporting the Reds have joined fellow Premier League clubs Tottenham, Everton, Newcastle United and Southampton in a long list of teams interested in making a move for the 27-year-old.

Ranocchia is on the outer at the San Siro and has only been given 70 minutes of playing time in the Serie A this season by Inter boss Roberto Mancini.

The Italian international is understood to be willing to consider a move elsewhere in favour of more regular first team action.
