Liverpool are considering signing Sheffield United midfielder Sander Berge in January, according to Jeunes Footeux (via Caught Offside).
The report claims that the Championship side are looking to receive a fee of around €20m for the Norwegian and with Jurgen Klopp wanting to add reinforcements in the middle of the park, it’s a deal that would certainly make sense.
The 24-year-old has Champions League experience with his former club Genk and also played in the Premier League with the Blades during his debut season in England.

Jude Bellingham is the club’s main transfer target, but with any potential deal for the teenager coming to fruition in the summer, a move for Berge during the winter window seems logical.
The FA Cup holders have been linked with a move for the versatile midfielder for some time and could be considered a bargain if rumors about its price are to be believed.
Chelsea are also reportedly interested in a move for the Norway international which may make capturing his signature a little more difficult.
The former Valarenga man has three goals and three assists in 13 Championship appearances for the Bramall Lane side this term and with Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and James Milner out of contract at the end of the season, reinforcements at the position they are certainly necessary.
The prospect of playing again in the English top flight and participating in the Champions League will certainly appeal to Berge.
