Report: Liverpool still considering Danny Ings swoop

Liverpool still considering Ings swoop?

Liverpool are still reported to be tracking Burnley striker Danny Ings.

The 21-year-old has scored 20 goals for the Championship side this season, attracting interest from a number of Premier League clubs, as well as Scottish champions Celtic.

Reds boss Brendan Rodgers was first linked with a move for the England Under-21 international, who joined the Clarets from Bournemouth for a fee of £1m in 2011, last month.

According to the Daily Mail, the Lancashire club have set an £8m asking price, although they may be willing to do business at around £5m.

Rodgers is reportedly seeking back-up for first-choice pairing Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge with the Merseysiders competing at the top of the Premier League table.

Ings made his debut for the Young Lions in a 4–0 win at San Marino in October before going on to score twice in the reverse fixture in November.
