We have to hope €100M monster convinced Liverpool scouts to sign him after Sunday's performance

Liverpool have shown interest in signing Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyokeres amid claims that Liverpool officials were in Portugal to watch the Swedish international in action.

Gyokeres, 25, has been in outstanding form this season, establishing himself as one of the top strikers in the football world.

It's no surprise that Liverpool has taken an interest, especially considering the team's inconsistency in front of goal.

Although Darwin Nunez has shown flashes of brilliance, he has struggled with his finishing, missing several crucial opportunities.

Liverpool need a consistent finisher, and the former Coventry City forward could be the ideal candidate.

According to HITC, he Reds' scouts observed Gyokeres during Sporting's 3-0 victory over Vitoria Guimaraes, where the striker scored twice.

With 38 goals and 16 assists across all competitions this season, Gyokeres has proven his ability to deliver in crucial moments.

The striker could see a move to Liverpool as a great opportunity to further his career.

However, Liverpool's attempts to sign him may face challenges.

Sporting CP holds a long-term contract with Gyokeres, and the Portuguese club is under no obligation to sell.

Sporting could demand full payment of the striker's €100 million release clause, which could pose a significant financial hurdle for Liverpool.

Meanwhile, Mohamed Salah has been constantly linked with a possible transfer away from Liverpool. With his contract expiring in 2025, there's speculation that Liverpool might cash in on him if he doesn't agree to an extension.

If Salah leaves, Liverpool will need to replace his goal-scoring prowess, making Gyokeres a highly desirable target.

The next few weeks will be crucial as Liverpool looks to bolster their attack and address the potential departure of Salah.

Gyokeres could be a key addition to the Reds' forward line if they manage to meet Sporting CP's demands.
