Liverpool have reportedly fired questions over Rodrigo de Paul repeatedly to the player’s agent, Mino Raiola, according to FcInterNews (via Sport Witness).
The Reds have been previously heavily linked with the Udinese star, particularly in the wake of speculation over Wijnaldum’s Anfield future, with the Dutchman looking nailed on to depart the club in the summer.
