But French TV station Canal + are reporting that Klopp has already met with the  24-year-old in a bid to bring him to Anfield.

And his club side will be once again doing their best to convince their star man to stay.

Fekir has scored 17 goals in Ligue 1 this season as well as laying on a further seven assists.

Just days ago SunSport reported how Lyon used it’s official Twitter feed to reassure fans that they hope to keep the talented playmaker.

There have been reports that Liverpool have agreed a £62million deal for the Lyon skipper with RMC Sport claiming they had offered him a five-year contract.

But Lyon chief executive Jean-Michel Aulas said: “We have no contact with Liverpool today. Nabil Fekir is here. We hope to keep it next year to play the Champions League.”
