Japanese and Red Bull Salzburg attacking midfielder Takumi Minamino is expected at Liverpool FC today for a medical prior to his proposed January move to Anfield.

So far Liverpool is still negotiating on signing the 24-year-old who has a £7.25m release clause in his contract.

Minamino first came into the Liverpool radar when he impressed in the Champions League group stage where he scored at Anfield when his team faced the Reds.

 

Minamino joined RB Salzburg from Japanese side Cerezo Osaka for less than £1m in 2015.
