The uncertainty around the future of Mohamed Salah has seen Liverpool linked with a number of options for the summer window, and the Spanish media has even suggested they could consider throwing their hat into the ring for Erling Haaland.
That seems unlikely, with the potential deal for the Borussia Dortmund striker being incredibly expensive once wages and agent commissions are taken into account.
Liverpool would surely be likelier to look for a cheaper option should they want an addition in attack, and that’s where Ismaïla Sarr could come in.
The 24-year-old has scored five goals and added an assist in 16 Premier League matches so far this season. His campaign has been hit by injury issues, and he hasn’t had the full impact Watford will have hoped for.
Had he done so then there’s a reasonable chance the Hornets wouldn’t be currently in the relegation zone. And should they end up back in the Championship, then a transfer at a relatively reasonable price is surely on the agenda.
Fichajes say the player is ‘one of those Jurgen Klopp likes most’, and Liverpool have been linked to the Watford player, on and off, for some time.
This summer could finally see them take the plunge, for a player who will hope to have a better season next time around… wherever that is.
