The Premier League duo are back in the race for Meyer and have made another enquiry regarding the 23-year-old.
Meyer is currently a free agent after leaving Schalke at the end of the season.
Arsenal have already signed Stephan Lichtsteiner, Bernd Leno, Sokratis Papastathopoulos, Lucas Torreira and Matteo Guendouzi this summer.
The Gunners could however, sign another player according to head coach Unai Emery who admitted he would sign a player for the right price.
Speaking last week, the Spanish manager stated: “We signed the players who we needed and only if one player is a big opportunity for us will we sign them.
“At the moment, I think the squad is complete.
“We will only sign another player if there is an opportunity to bring in that one player, or two players.”
Klopp is familiar with Meyer from his time managing in the Bundesliga.
