Andrea Pinamonti is a target for Liverpool, with the teenage Italian disillusioned with life at Inter Milan, reports Gazzetta.
The 18-year-old striker developed a name in Europe due to his scintillating form at youth level, where he’s scored a hatful of goals.
But it hasn’t led to many first-team opportunities with the Italian giants, who’ve picked him just twice.

Luciano Spaletti naturally prefers Mauro Icardi, but also Eder, an ageing Brazilian-Italian who’s scored just three times in Serie A this term.
Pinamonti would cost around £2m and is also being tracked by Valencia, Atletico Madrid, PSG and Juventus.
From what we’ve seen, he looks a sharp finisher, but in our opinion, isn’t ready for first-team football, especially in the Premier League.
If that’s what he’s after at Liverpool, he’ll be waiting a long time.
We do need to bolster our reserve options next season, with Danny Ings and Dominic Solanke proving poor – in all honesty – but we’re not sure Pinamonti’s the right man for the job.
