Since the dismantling of the destructive front three consisting of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, and Mohamed Salah, the team has added Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, and Cody Gakpo. However, they have not been able to regain their former attacking prowess.
The burden on the Egyptian winger is also significant, and to make matters worse, there is intense interest from Saudi Arabia. The Egyptian King, who will turn 32 next year, is approaching the end of his career and is in search of a successor.
According to Fichajes, Liverpool is interested in Brighton forward Evan Ferguson. He could face competition from fellow Premier League clubs Arsenal and Manchester United in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Since joining Brighton from Bohemians in the summer of 2021, Ferguson has honed his skills in the U-21 team and has scored 16 goals in 50 games for the first team. He is a physical player who battles against opposing center backs and combines well with his teammates to score goals.
Despite being only 19 years old, he is a regular member of the Irish national team, scoring three goals in eight games, and is highly regarded as a promising player. He has also attracted interest from several clubs in England. With a contract expiring in June 2029, any club looking to acquire him will need to offer a substantial transfer fee.
For Liverpool, they have been without a true center forward since Roberto Firmino left the club. Although Darwin Nunez seemed to improve in his second year, he has recently struggled to score goals. Cody Gakpo, being a natural winger, does not prefer to have a lot of possession.
Diogo Jota has been increasingly sidelined due to injuries, and there have been games where the team struggled to settle in the center forward position. Currently, the responsibility of breaking down solid defenses rests largely on the Egyptian winger.
The Irish striker, who can excel in both holding up play and scoring goals, would be a formidable addition to Anfield.
Will Liverpool be able to secure a player from Brighton for the second year in a row, considering the constant discovery of talent at the club?
