According to FT, the Reds are in advanced talks to hire the services of French midfielder, Khephren Thuram, from Nice.

Jurgen Klopp lacks creative midfielders who can regular set up goals. Last season, our senior midfielders were not productive in the attacking third.
Thiago, who is considered to be a top creative midfielder, only provided a single assist in all competitions and the Spaniard has been highly injury prone.
Brazilian defensive midfielder, Fabinho, managed to set up just two goals. On the other hand, skipper, Jordan Henderson, provided only 3 assists in 43 appearances for the Merseysiders.
Not to forget, the above mentioned trio failed to score a single goal last term. Khephren Thuram provided eight assists in all competitions and also netted two goals.
In your view, should Liverpool move to sign him? Is he worth £51.7m?
