The 22-year-old joined Liverpool from the Portuguese giants Benfica for £21.5 million back in 2014. However, Markovic has struggled to settle into the Premier League since making the move.

Fenerbahce took the Serbia international on a season-long loan deal last season however, Markovic spent the majority of the year in the treatment room following a run of injuries.

The Sun goes onto state that Markovic has fallen further down the pecking order at Liverpool falling the signing of Sadio Mane from Southampton. The report goes onto state that Markovic has attracted the attention of several sides around Europe including the Serie A giants AC Milan.

Liverpool take on Leicester City in their next Premier League game on September 10.
