Liverpool will reportedly face Premier League competition for the signature of Club Brugge youngster Arnaut Groeneveld.

Groeneveld has also attracted interest from Tottenham Hotspur and Everton, according to the Daily Mail, while Milan are said to have seen a £9million offer rejected.

The 21-year-old winger caught the eye of several clubs after impressive displays in this season's Champions League group stages and making his international debut in October.

Groeneveld has scored five goals in 15 appearances for Brugge this season, having been sidelined with an ankle injury for the past three months.

Meanwhile, right-back Connor Randall has returned to Anfield after his loan spell with Rochdale was cut short.

“We can confirm that Connor Randall is back at Liverpool, having rejoined his parent club upon the end of his loan spell at Rochdale," a statement by the League One club read.

Randall made eight appearances for Jürgen Klopp's first team across the 2015-16 and 2016-17 campaigns while providing cover in the right-back position.

The 23-year-old turned out for Liverpool Under-23s in their 1-1 draw with Brighton and Hove Albion on Monday night.
