Liverpool’s attackers halved their scoring output towards the end of last season. Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah all had chances, but in many games they failed to finish the game and dropped points.
Furthermore, combined with the age of the Egyptian winger, Liverpool are looking to secure a new attacker, and Newcastle forward Anthony Gordon is highly rated. Negotiations were held, including with Joe Gomez, but the transfer never went through.
Nevertheless, Liverpool’s interest in the England international’s quick-footed winger has never ceased. Defender Jamie Carragher, who was even vice-captain at Anfield during his playing days, has revealed that he is a great desire for the player and claimed he is the piece needed to bring back the front-three era.
“I think it would be a good signing for Liverpool, I’m a big fan.”
“I can’t believe he didn’t get more opportunities for England. He’s got blistering pace that leaves defenders for dead and not many players worldwide have that. I’m a big fan but I’m sure so many people are at other clubs as well, he’s at a top club in Newcastle but there’s been a lot of talk about whether he was offered to Liverpool.”
“There is a lot of time to get between now and the end of the window, I think a lot of teams will do business towards the end of the window because of the Euros.”
“I do feel Liverpool still haven’t replaced the pace they had in the attack when they had Sadio Mane and they need to replace that.”
