Liverpool have a plan B in their sights if they fail to sign Jude Bellingham in the upcoming summer transfer window, where they will face Real Madrid and other Premier League giants in a big-money bid, according to the Daily Express. Jürgen Klopp's side are considering a move for Leicester City star James Maddison, one of the Premier League's top players in 2022, when the current season of European football comes to an end.

The England midfielder's contract expires in the summer of 2024 and there is still no information on his renewal, raising the possibility that he could leave the King Power Stadium at the end of this season. His impressive performances and contract situation have put him on the agenda of several top Premier League sides such as Antonio Conte's Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United, who tried to sign him in the summer transfer window that ended a few weeks ago.

The reason why Klopp is still being criticised despite Liverpool's win revealed

Liverpool's priority is Jude Bellingham, but they know it will be difficult to sign him due to the interest of several European giants in signing him in 2023 and Borussia Dortmund's intention to renew his contract to increase his market price. It is said that they would only accept 120 million euros for the young English talent.

James Maddison would be a much cheaper option and could provide Jürgen Klopp with more attacking options. Bellingham would be priced out of the market for Liverpool, who would have a big fight against rivals such as Real Madrid for the Borussia Dortmund player. As a result, Anfield have changed their attacking target for next season. According to the Daily Express, Maddison has caught the eye of Jürgen Klopp's side.

Liverpool think about James Maddison 

Maddison has improved his performances at Leicester over the years and could now switch clubs in England, although Liverpool's financial commitment remains to be seen. However, Leicester will not make it easy, as his contract expires in 2024 and they will demand a very high fee, so Maddison's willingness will be key in deciding the deal. Liverpool have also had their eye on Wolves' Matheus Nunes, but Bellingham, who could soon return to England, is top of the list.
