Liverpool are reported to have renewed their interest in Town striker Connor Wickham. The Reds have long been linked with the 18-year-old with their director of football strategy Damien Comolli at the Hull City match in February.

According to the report, which largely appears to be a rehash of earlier stories, the Blues have put a £10 million price-tag on Wickham’s head, although there is understood to be a clause in Wickham’s deal which would allow him to discuss a move if the Blues receive a bid at a set level, believed to be somewhere around £10 million to £15 million mark.

Wickham, whose valuation is said to have almost been met by Spurs a year ago, recently extended his contract by a further year until 2014, not 2013 as the story claims.

Liverpool, Spurs and the rest of the Premier League’s bigger clubs are certain to be keeping an eye on Wickham at the UEFA European U21 Championship in Denmark later this month.

After facing Norway in a warm-up game at Southampton on Sunday (ESPN/ESPN HD 2.30pm), Stuart Pearce’s side will take on Spain on June 12th, Ukraine on June 15th and the Czech Republic on June 19th in the group stages.
