Liverpool were reportedly keen on signing Aurelien Tchouameni and Rodrygo Goes from Real Madrid.
According to TBR Football, they held talks with the Spanish giants regarding the two players.
The report states that Liverpool spoke to the Spanish club about signing the two players but they did not come forward with an official offer. Real Madrid made it clear to the English club that the two players were not for sale and the Reds had to abandon their pursuit.
Tchouameni was heavily linked with a move to Liverpool during his time at Monaco. The Reds were keen to secure his services back then but the player opted to join Real Madrid instead.
Although he has not been a regular starter for them, he remains a key part of their plans going forward and he could develop into a world-class defensive midfielder for them in the long term.
There is no doubt that the French international is a phenomenal talent with a bright future. Liverpool could use a quality defensive midfielder like him. They have struggled in that department since the departure of Fabinho and it remains to be seen whether they can bring someone in.
Liverpool tried to sign Martin Zubimendi during the summer transfer window but the Spanish international opted to stay in La Liga instead.
