Pinamonti could cost around £2million, but he has only made two senior first team appearances and has yet to score a goal.

The Italy Under-19 international has scored three goals at that age group, but has been disappointed by a lack of first-team opportunities at the San Siro.

He is Luciano Spalletti's fifth-choice forward behind Mauro Icardio, Eder, Matias Vecino and Yann Karamoh.

According to , Valencia, Atletico Madrid, PSG and Serie A rivals Juventus have also shown an interest in Pinamonti.

He signed a new contract last year but his career is yet to take off, with Inter fans possibly wondering why he is not getting more game time if other European clubs are showing so much interest.

The last starlet the Reds signed from the Nerazzurri was Philippe Coutinho, who became a key man for the Merseysiders, before he left for Barcelona for £145million in January.

Neves, 21, will be playing first-team football in the Premier League next season after Wanderers were promoted to the top flight, winning the Championship at a canter.

Meanwhile, the Reds could make Emre Can's probable departure to Juventus work for them if they manage to bolster their midfield with the capture of Sami Khedira in return.

The World Cup winner could give Jurgen Klopp a much-needed boost next season, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's recuperation from knee ligament damage likely to last well into next term and Can's exit near certain.
