Liverpool are reportedly planning a summer bid for Swedish winger Emil Forsberg.

Liverpool are reportedly considering a summer bid for highly-regarded Swedish winger Emil Forsberg.

The 24-year-old, who was voted Swedish midfielder of the year in 2014, joined Bundesliga second-tier side RB Leipzig a year ago in a three-and-a-half year, £2.6m deal from Malmo.

Forsberg has been a key member of the side's promotion charge this season, scoring five and assisting four to help Leipzig to three points clear at the top at the halfway stage.

The Reds made a tentative enquiry last month, according to the Daily Mail, but were told that they would have to wait until the end of the season before any offers would be considered.
