Liverpool are reportedly closing in on a £71m transfer for Lille super winger Nicolas Pepe
| ||||||
The 24-year-old has been linked heavily with a Premier League move as both Arsenal and Manchester United are keen on a deal.
However, Liverpool were previously disclosed to have started talks with Lille for the ace winger who scored 22 times and provided 11 assists to lead the French club to second in the Ligue 1 table this season.
Pepe has sparked interest from England's major clubs, and his exit from Lille is now said to be "fast approaching" with Liverpool understood to have met Lille's valuation.
Lille manager Christophe Galtier already confirmed Pepe is going to exit the club this summer.
And Serie A giant Inter Milan had also been reported to have made a 60m offer, which now leave the Reds as the top bidder for the Ivorian.
