Liverpool and Newcastle United are reportedly interested in Bayer Leverkusen defender Jonathan Tah.
According to a 90 min report, the two clubs have now held talks about a possible summer move for the German defender.
The 26-year-old has been a reliable defender in the Bundesliga for the past few seasons and it remains to be seen if he is open to a move from the Premier League in the summer.
West Ham United are apparently interested in signing the player, as well as a replacement for Craig Dawson, who joined Wolverhampton Wanderers last month.
Meanwhile, Tottenham also held talks to sign the player during the January transfer window.
Liverpool could definitely use more depth in their back four and the 26-year-old could be a quality acquisition.
Joel Matip and Joe Gomez have regressed considerably over the past year and Jurgen Klopp needs to bring in a quality defender at the end of the season.
Tah has the physical and technical attributes to succeed in the Premier League and could be the ideal signing for Liverpool next season.

Meanwhile, Newcastle United have been excellent at the back this season, but Eddie Howe needs to add more depth to his defensive unit.
Tah could prove to be a quality acquisition and could be the ideal long-term partner for Sven Botman at the heart of Newcastle’s defence.
Both Premier League clubs have the financial resources to sign the player and it remains to be seen where the 26-year-old ultimately ends up.
