LIVERPOOL have reportedly made an offer for former Cardiff midfielder Gary Medel.

Gary Medel was named player of the tournament in the Copa America this summer

The Chile international made 34 Premier League appearances for Cardiff during his year with the Welsh club but he couldn’t help the Bluebirds avoid relegation in 2014.

And Medel, now at Inter Milan, could now be set for a return to the English top flight.

Italian website Corriere della Sera claim Liverpool have made an offer for the 29-year-old.

Liverpool have already added Georginio Wijnaldum and Marko Grujic to their midfield this summer.

But the report claims Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is still keen on signing another midfielder to his squad, with Medel firmly in his sights.

Klopp watched the midfielder during the Copa America earlier this year, where the Chilian was named player of the tournament.

Medel has spent the past two seasons with Inter Milan, making 58 Serie A appearances for the club.

Brilliant!

We must be due a few million as we ALWAYS insist on a huge sell-on clause!

Agree! He at least doubled Whittingham stats on backward passes and tackle rate! Witch means he played the wrong way, and made two successful tackles pr game..
