Liverpool will receive stiff competition from another English club, rumoured to be Arsenal, to sign Ukraine winger Yevhen Konoplyanka according to KOPTALK.

His agent stated: “When writing about the interest from Liverpool, these people only know part of the truth.

“Yesterday, I had a long and productive conversation with the chairman of another English club.

“The chances of Yevhen moving to England soon are very high. His club might be Liverpool or another English club.

He also went on to add that he will not reveal the identity of the other club: “I will not mention the name of the club. In the near future, you will hear it.”

Spurs manager Tim Sherwood played down talks of a bid : “Yeah he plays off the left,”

“I know him but nothing looks like happening. We’d have to do it now because we’ve only got two days left.

“I don’t see it happening but that’s why we’ve got people working with us.

“The chairman here is always asking me if there’s anyone we need but I need to make sure they are of the quality we need and not just a body for the sake of it. “

Liverpool lost Willian and Mohamed Salah to late bids and will have to wrap up the deal quickly with Dnipro if they want to avoid a similar scenario again.
