Bayer Leverkusen are interested in Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren.

Lovren is ready to leave the Reds, but has seen talks with Roma fall through in the last week.

BILD says Bayer are in the market for a new centre-half and are weighing up a late move for Lovren.

Roma and Liverpool had agreed a loan fee of €3m with a permanent option for €12m.

However, Lovren's demands of a signing-on bonus saw the move collapse.
