Baris Yilmaz favours Liverpool move

German journalist Christain Falk believes Liverpool don't need to worry about interest from the Bundesliga if they want to follow up on interest in Baris Yilmaz.

Borussia Dortmund, Eintracht Frankfurt and RB Leipzig are all interested in the Turkish winger but Falk understands that the Reds can have him for around £23.5m if they want him.

CHAMBERS SET TO RETURN TO WIGAN

"I know in today’s market [high prices] will happen," said Van den Berg, per the Liverpool Echo. "For the price they want for me, hmmm… Liverpool may think it is right as I had a good season".

Van den Berg has been heavily linked with a return to Germany and a switch to PSV Eindhoven.
