Liverpool have reportedly turned their head towards Napoli midfielder Fabian Ruiz, according to the Daily Mail.
The report states that the Reds have had an offer worth £47m turned down by Real Madrid for their playmaker, which has now forced them to change their direction towards the Serie A star.
Ruiz has been slightly off-colour this season, as he has racked up only a goal and two assists in 18 outings. It is mainly due to the fact that the Spaniard has been played out of position – as a holding midfielder – by the new manager Gennaro Gattuso.
The 23-year-old is also said to be a summer target for La Liga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Liverpool are now looking to bolster their midfield options, and have found the ex-Real Betis star as an opt one to do so.
The Merseyside club holds the reputation for making some productive signings, having recently added the highly-talented Takumi Minamino to their squad.
