Loads of Liverpool fans have been reacting to a huge transfer story, as reports claim they are eyeing a move for Lyon wonderkid Houssem Aouar.

According to RMC reporter Mohamed Bouhafsi, both Liverpool and Chelsea are chasing Aouar, who has five goals and four assists in his last 12 Lyon appearances.

Bouhafsi was one of the first reporters to break Fabinho’s move to Liverpool in the summer, and he claims both title contenders are keeping a keen eye on the versatile youngster.

The Reds were of course heavily linked with a move for Nabil Fekir in the summer, but his teammate Aouar represents a significantly better long-term investment.

The 20 year-old was handed a new contract and the number eight shirt this summer, so he certainly wouldn't come cheap, but the Reds have already shown they will splash the cash for the right player.

Aouar is an excellent dribbler and works tirelessly in Lyon’s high-tempo press, so he could be the perfect man to replace Philippe Coutinho on the left side of Klopp’s midfield three.

A whopping 87 per cent of fans want to move for the youngster, and you can view the full poll results down below…
