Several British newspapers have linked Germany U21 international Dahoud with a move to Anfield in the past.

Dahoud is an energetic all-round midfield talent, combining a tireless work rate and incisive movement with a broad range of passing and tenacious ball-winning.

Dahoud is under contract until 2018 and Gladbach are adamant that he is going nowhere. Their sporting director, Max Eberl, said earlier this year: "Dahoud is not for sale. We are a hungry club and we need every good player."

2. Lucas Moura (PSG) - 4.2

Lucas is still being discussed as a possible transfer to Liverpool and his rating in the Football Whispers charts did not dip below 3.0 in June.

The 23-year-old Brazil winger scored an impressive 13 goals in 32 starts for PSG in all competitions last season and continues to be linked with a move to Anfield.

3. Moussa Sissoko (Newcastle) - 3.8

Sissoko struggled at times last season as Newcastle were relegated, but has proved in the past he certainly has the talent to perform at a higher level in the Premier League.
