LIVERPOOL are plotting a move to bring Monaco wonderkid Christian Koffi to Anfield.
The Reds are already full of beans after roasting Manchester City 3-0 in the Champions League on Wednesday.
And boss Jurgen Klopp is now brewing up plans to land midfield prospect Koffi, 17, from Monaco’s highly-rated academy.
The teenager will be out of contract this summer, and Liverpool can snap him up for a nominal fee.
French newspaper L’Equipe has compared Koffi to a young version of Sadio Mane.
The Monaco starlet helped his Monte Carlo club’s Under-17 side finish national league runners-up last season.
He is the subject of interest from a number of top European clubs, but Liverpool are believed to be in pole position to snap him up.
He has been offered a deal by Monaco, but looks set to move to pastures new.

If Jurgen Klopp manages to snare Koffi, it could spell curtains for a potential move for Thomas Lemar.
The Reds were spurned in their efforts to sign the 22-year-old last summer, but many expect them to be back in for his at the end of the season.
But the price may be hiked up further if Monaco lose one of their top talents in Koffi to Anfield.
