Liverpool make enquiries for West Ham's Issa Diop over late January move (reliability: 5 stars)

• The Athletic, a reliable source of information, has stated that Liverpool have asked West Ham about the availability of Issa Diop.
• The defender played in 65 league games across the last 2 seasons but has only appeared 4 times in 20/21.
• However, with West Ham so high up the table (5th), it is unlikely they will sanction a loan deal for their 4th-choice centre-back.
• The club will only be persuaded if a loan offer has an obligation to buy for over £20 million.
• The 24-year-old has also struggled with Covid-19 earlier in the season in October.
