United reportedly saw a £31million bid for Sanchez, a Benfica midfielder, rejected during the January transfer window, hwhilst they were linked with a £19.5m transfer swoop for Valencia’s Gomes last week. 21-year-old Silva, meanwhile, has bagged five goals in 16 Ligue 1 appearances for Monaco this season.

According to The Sun, Liverpool will look to revamp their strike force during the coming transfer window with a £9.5million bid for River Plate forward Lucas Alario, who has bagged ten goals in 29 league outings since signing for the Argentinean outfit last summer.

The 23-year-old fired his side to the 2015 Copa Libertadores title and the final of the 2015 Club World Cup, where they were eventually beaten by Barcelona, and is seen as a transfer target who can provide support for Daniel Sturridge at Anfield next season. Liverpool scouts have already watched the 5 foot 11 assassin in action.
