Despite failing to secure Martin Zubimendi this summer, Liverpool remains determined to make the right signing for Arne Slot’s team.
In a recent match against Ipswich Town, Slot opted to use Ryan Gravenberch as Liverpool’s number six, which proved to be effective as his fellow countryman excelled in the second half.
However, Liverpool still recognizes the need for new additions, especially in the center-back and winger positions. The uncertainty surrounding the best partner for Virgil van Dijk was evident when Ibrahima Konate replaced Jarell Quansah at halftime.
Despite this, reports suggest that Liverpool is contemplating a bold move to acquire Ademola Lookman, who could provide more options in the attacking department for Slot.
With speculation surrounding Lookman’s future at Atalanta, various clubs including Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester City have been monitoring the situation closely.
While Lookman is said to prefer a move to Paris, Atalanta values him at around €60m (£51m) and may be reluctant to let him go, especially after losing Teun Koopmeiners to Juventus.
Although opinions on Lookman’s potential return to English football may vary among Liverpool fans due to his previous spell at Everton, adding him to the team could prove beneficial over the course of the season.
