Liverpool are planning a £15 million bid for Burnley goalkeeper Nick Pope, according to reports.

Jurgen Klopp is reportedly in the market for a new goalkeeper with Loris Karius failing to convince after taking Simon Mignolets place as Liverpools first-choice goalkeeper.

According to The Sun, Liverpool are lining up a move for Pope as an alternative to Romas Alisson and will open with a £15m offer to Burnley.

Roma are reportedly standing firm over Alissons availability and are holding out for a €90m (£79m) transfer fee.

Pope, meanwhile, represents a cheaper option and the 26-year-old has impressed for Burnley in the absence of Tom Heaton.

The Suns report also claims that Burnley could be open to doing business with Liverpool as Heaton would reclaim his spot as Sean Dyches No.1 once Pope departed.

Heaton was sidelined for most of last season after suffering a shoulder injury in September.

The 26-year-old, who has two years left on his contract, is currently with Englands squad preparing for their World Cup campaign this summer.
