Liverpool 'to use Harry Wilson in Raphinha pursuit'

Liverpool have reportedly stolen a march on their rivals in the race to sign Raphinha as Leeds United are eager to snap up Harry Wilson.

Raphinha impressed in his debut Premier League campaign for Leeds, scoring and assisting a combined 15 goals in 30 matches.

That form has led to rumoured interest from Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool for a player who features predominantly on the right.

According to The Mirror, Liverpool hold an advantage on their rivals as they are willing to let Wilson head in the opposite direction as part of any transfer.

Wilson is back at Anfield following a season on loan at the Cardiff City Stadium, where he registered seven goals and 11 assists in 37 Championship games.

The 24-year-old, who is currently away with Wales on Euro 2020 duty, is not believed to be part of Jurgen Klopp's long-term plans.
