Liverpool are reportedly interested in the loan of Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie in January.
Jurgen Klopp is desperate to sign an elite midfielder and has made Jude Bellingham his number one priority, but with any potential deal for the Borussia Dortmund teenager likely to come at the end of the season, it means McKennie is a move for the US international being considered by the FA Cup holders, that’s according to the Daily Mail.
The Reds have already completed a season-long loan deal for Arthur Melo from the Serie A giants this season and appear to be weighing a second deal with the Turin-based outfit.

The American impressed during the World Cup, including during the goalless draw with England, and Spurs are believed to be interested in the 24-year-old as well.
A report from Calciomercato (via The Boot Room), suggests that Juventus may be willing to let the versatile midfielder leave the Allianz Stadium permanently if he receives an offer in the region of £25-30m.
Reports linking McKennie to a move to Merseyside date back to 2019 while he was playing for Schalke.
The World Cup has resulted in a number of players being linked with the FA Cup winners.
Moroccan Sofyan Amrabat and World Cup winner Enzo Fernández are just a few of the other midfielders reportedly being considered and it certainly looks like we have a couple of busy transfer windows ahead of us.
