Liverpool are reportedly ready to offload Harry Wilson and Marko Grujic in a bid to land RB Leipzig star Timo Werner.

According to The Sun, the duo, along with Xherdan Shaqiri, are now likely to be surplus to requirements at Anfield, with boss Jurgen Klopp also keen on bankrolling a big-money move for German international Werner.

The chase for Werner has reportedly hit several financial complications on the back of the Covid-19 pandemic, with the player currently having a release clause of £52m.

That clause will expire in June, meaning Leipzig could be free to up their asking price.

Werner has scored 88 goals in 150 appearances, with 27 in 36 this season.

Before the pandemic, the striker seemed destined for a move to Merseyside, but there's a growing suggestion that the Reds may not be able to fork out the cash needed this summer.

Nevertheless, they are seemingly desperate to land their man, and are seemingly ready to let go of Wilson, Grujic and Shaqiri in order to fund a move.

Wilson is currently out on loan at Bournemouth, while Grujic has established himself as a big fans' favourite at Hertha Berlin.

Both players are highly-rated by Klopp, but the chances of either player breaking into the first team are looking increasingly unlikely.

Wilson himself has previously hinted that his future may well lie away from Merseyside, telling BT Sport recently: “I feel like I’ve got that decision to make in the summer.

“I feel like my last two years of loans have been good and this one has been positive for me as well.

“I’m finally in the Premier League which is what I’ve worked towards.

“In the summer I will be concentrating on Wales but once that is done, I may have a decision to make.”
