Liverpool 'send scouts to watch Abdulkadir Omur'

Liverpool have reportedly been scouting Trabzonspor midfielder Abdulkadir Omur in recent weeks.

Last month, Omur branded Liverpool "a very important club" amid suggestions that the Reds had launched a £26.9m offer during the winter transfer window.

The 19-year-old ultimately remained with Trabzonspor beyond the end of January and he has been in impressive form this season, scoring twice and registering six assists in 24 appearances.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, Liverpool have sent scouts to watch the Turkey Under-21 international as they consider a bid in this summer's transfer window.

Omur will not be 20 until the end of June, but he has already made 63 first-team appearances for Trabzonspor, scoring six times and registering 12 assists in all competitions.

Tottenham Hotspur and Leicester City have also previously been credited with an interest in the versatile midfielder.
