Liverpool continue talks with Blackburn Rovers over a deal for defender Ben Davies.

The 26-year-old defender arrived at Anfield from Preston North End during Liverpool’s injury-ridden 2020-21 season and has yet to appear at the club since.

Davies was left out of the Reds’ pre-season tour in July after spending the last campaign on loan at Sheffield United.

The centre-back is no stranger to Lancashire life, having previously played for Blackburn’s local rivals Preston.

Liverpool have reportedly ended their inbound transfer business after enticing £85million striker Darwin Nunez from Benfica along with youngsters Fabio Carvalho and Calvin Ramsay.

The Anfield chiefs have already recouped more than £65million in the sale, parting ways with Sadio Mane to Bayern Munich, Neco Williams to Nottingham Forest, Marko Grujic to Porto and Takumi Minamino to Monaco.
