Liverpool are set to go head to head with Chelsea in for out-of-favour Inter Milan midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia.
Kondogbia has been used sparingly by the Serie A giants, with the France international making ju st 11 first-team appearances this season.
The 23-year-old is keen to secure a January exit from the San Siro and has reportedly attracted interest from the Reds as well as Antonio Conte’s side.
According to France Football, both Premier League clubs have made tentative enquiries for Kondogbia with a view to making a move later in the transfer window.
Inter had previously been open to offloading the former Monaco player on an initial loan deal with an obligation to buy set at £18.5 million.
In addition to Liverpool and Chelsea, Marseille are understood to be willing to offer Kondogbia a return to his homeland before the January 31 deadline.
