Liverpool are being linked with three superb attacking players as they face the likely summer exit of Raheem Sterling to Manchester City this summer, according to various recent reports.

The Reds could launch a £68.5m triple bid to strengthen out wide, up front and in the attacking midfield department, with one of Arsenal’s top targets on the club’s agenda…

1) Pedro (Barcelona)

Also linked with Arsenal and available for £18m this summer, Barcelona winger Pedro is a top target for Liverpool and would make an ideal replacement for Sterling out wide, adding pace and goals to this Reds side.

2) Christian Benteke (Aston Villa)

Other reports claim Liverpool are also ready to meet the £32.5m release clause for Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke, with the Belgian international in superb form last season and looking just what like Brendan Rodgers’ side needs up front after losing Luis Suarez.

3) Mateo Kovacic (Inter Milan)

A superb young midfielder with an eye for a pass and a goal from the middle of the park, Inter Milan starlet Mateo Kovacic is another top Liverpool target this summer and is expected to join for around £18m after lengthy talks.
