Premier League clubs will face competition from Europe if they want to sign Youri Tielemans next summer.
The Leicester midfielder’s deal at the King Power Stadium runs out at the end of the current campaign and he is not expected to sign a new one.
Manchester United and Arsenal have long been tipped with an interest in the classy Belgium international.
But Italian media believe that Liverpool are also in the mix for the 25-year-old, as well as Real Madrid and Juventus.
The Reds are desperate for midfield reinforcements and are thought to be at the front of the queue for Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham.
They will have to battle with Real to sign Bellingham, and that will also be the case with central midfielder Tielemans.
Juventus, meanwhile, have endured a difficult couple of seasons in Serie A and believe Tielemans can improve their options.
Leicester have struggled at the start of the current campaign but would be reluctant to sell their No8 in January, even if it meant losing him on a free come the summer.
