Liverpool are among the clubs who could end up signing Sunderland midfielder Dan Neil on deadline day.
The Sunderland youngster has played every game this season in the Championship and has been impressing with his performances in the northeast.
Neil, 21, is now believed to be on the radar of a number of Premier League clubs and according to The Telegraph’s Mike McGrath, Liverpool are one of those clubs.

Liverpool’s window has been a busy one and they are working hard to get a deal for Ryan Gravenberch over the line before the deadline ticks by.The Reds lost a number of high profile players but have made some big signings as well.
If Neil does arrive, he is likely to be more for development purposes, rather than a player to be thrown straight into the first XI.
Busy deadline for Liverpool
The signing of Dan Neil probably isn’t a priority for Liverpool on this deadline day but it just shows they are still scouring the market for different players.
Neil has impressed with Sunderland and it’s obvious he is going to end up in the Premier League at some point.
Whether or not that is with Liverpool, though, remains to be seen. Certainly, he’d have a tough old job breaking into the first XI any time soon if he did sign.
