Wednesday morning's Liverpool transfer talk news roundup:

Liverpool 'agree £36m deal for Ismaila Sarr'

Liverpool are reportedly prepared to press ahead with a deal for Watford winger Ismaila Sarr.

Having signed Diogo Jota from Wolverhampton Wanderers last weekend, it was claimed that Liverpool had ended their efforts to sign Sarr before the end of the summer transfer window.

However, according to France Football, club officials have recently held more discussions with representatives of the Senegal international.

The report claims that the Premier League champions and recently-relegated Watford are prepared to do a deal for a fee in the region of £36m.

Although the Hornets are said to be in no rush to part ways with the 22-year-old, they would be making a significant profit on a player who only moved to Vicarage Road last summer.

Liverpool will likely have to offload at least one player to accommodate the arrival of Sarr.

Liverpool 'in regular contact with Kylian Mbappe'

Liverpool are in regular contact with Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe over a possible move to Anfield next summer, according to a report.

The 21-year-old has netted 91 times in 125 games for the French champions since arriving from Monaco, but Mbappe has seen his future at PSG called into question on a couple of occasions recently.

The World Cup-winning forward will see his contract at PSG expire next summer, and Thomas Tuchel's side are faced with a difficult decision if Mbappe decides against renewing his deal at the Parc des Princes.

According to French outlet L'Equipe, Liverpool are hopeful of pulling off a sensational deal to bring Mbappe to the Premier League, but the Reds will have to fend off interest from Real Madrid to secure the Frenchman's signature.

The report claims that PSG would be open to selling Mbappe if they are unable to agree a contract extension with the former Monaco man, although it remains to be seen whether or not Liverpool would have the financial firepower to sign him.

Mbappe returned to action against Nice on Sunday after recovering from coronavirus, and the forward netted PSG's opener from the penalty spot in a 3-0 victory for Tuchel's side.
