Liverpool are not interested in signing Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly, but they may be in the market for another centre back if Dejan Lovren leaves Anfield.
Several reports have suggested Koulibaly is top of Jurgen Klopp’s wanted list, but it’s understood Liverpool’s strict transfer policy prohibits them spending more than £60m on a 29-year-old.
Koulibaly is one of the hottest properties in Europe, with his commanding performances seeing him linked with the likes of Manchester City, Manchester United and PSG. The Napoli President has said the club would laugh off any offer below £60m - instead, they value him around £90m.

Liverpool already have four centre backs in Lovren, Virgil Van Dyke, Joel Matip and Joe Gomez. Lovren is currently fourth choice - his only league start of 2020 co-incides with Liverpool’s only Premier League defeat of the season - the 3-0 loss to Watford in February.
It’s thought Liverpool would be willing to listen to offers for the Croatian, who turns 31 next week and has one year left on his contract - but only if they can get a replacement in once the transfer window opens.
