Reports in Italy say £44m Serie A star wants Liverpool move: Agent is pushing for talks
LORENZO INSIGNE is reportedly open to joining Liverpool.
Liverpool's Most Expensive Transfers
The 25-year-old winger has failed to score in his 11 appearances for the Serie A side so far this season.
And his failure to get off the mark has seen him come under criticism, casting doubt over his future at the club.

The Italy international was left in tears on Wednesday after he was jeered by fans for missing a penalty in the 3-2 Champions League defeat to Besiktas.
And with talks over a new contract stalling due to his £100,000-a-week wage demands and president Aurelio De Laurentiis apparently keen to sell Insigne, he is ready to leave the club.

Italian outlet Rai Sport claim Insigne's agent is now pushing for talks with Liverpool as manager Jurgen Klopp has apparently been a long-term admirer of the Italian.
The report adds Arsenal and Valencia have also expressed an interest in the past and could swoop for him.

Insigne has 12 international caps to his name and has been linked with a move to the Premier League on several occasions.
