Liverpool have been heavily linked with a move to sign a striker as the club continue to assess their forward options with a view to doing something in the market next summer.
There is a growing consensus around Liverpool that Darwin Nunez can never be the long-term number 9 given his inconsistent finishing ability and Diogo Jota is not a natural striker.
Liverpool have been heavily linked with a move for a striker next summer and several players are said to be on their radar as they assess their options for next summer.
Sporting Lisbon’s Viktor Gyokeres and Lille’s Jonathan David are some of the forwards who have been linked with a move to Anfield at the end of the season.
However, Omar Marmoush is one name who has been incessantly linked with a move to Liverpool with suggestions that the striker wants to join the Merseyside giants next summer.
But it has been claimed that Liverpool’s interest in the Egyptian has been overstated for the time being.
The latest on the club’s pursuit of Marmoush
Marmoush has been scoring goals for fun at Eintracht Frankfurt, netting 14 times and registering ten more assists in 16 appearances across all competitions this season.
Liverpool have been keeping tabs on him but according to The Athletic, their interest in him is not as advanced.
The talk of Liverpool contacting the forward and his representatives has been played down and there are no talks between the two sides at the moment.
Marmoush is enjoying a great season but Liverpool believe they are well-stocked in forwards at the moment.
The Merseyside giants have Mohamed Salah, Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota, Cody Gakpo and Federico Chiesa in their squad.
Can you name the team Liverpool sold these players to?
Liverpool would only try to sign a new attacker next summer if they sell one of the forwards at the end of the season.
Marmoush is keen on a move to Anfield but he has other clubs such as Barcelona and Bayern Munich on his tail as well.
It remains to be seen whether the Reds decide to take a decision to pursue the Eintracht Frankfurt striker in the next summer transfer window.
