Saul Niguez is one of the most sought after men this summer. The fact Atletico have put him on the market has made clubs like Liverpool take interest in him. The Reds want him to occupy the place Georginio Wijnaldum has left.

Liverpool have made a small list of targets as a result of Georginio Wijnaldum's departure. The Dutchman's departure has left a hole in midfield which has still not been filled.

One of Liverpool's targets is Saul Niguez. The Atletico Madrid midfielder has been offered in a swap deal with Griezmann, but his future could lie in the Premier League.

The 'Daily Mail' reports that the Atletico man is well liked in Liverpool's offices, especially because of how versatile he is. He can play in several positions in midfield.

But Saul is not the only player Liverpool are after. Liverpool have focussed on other top footballers like Tielemans, Aouar and Franck Kessie.

Man Utd and Barcelona are the teams to have shown the most interest in Saul, who is looking for game time which he did not get last season.
