Liverpool is about to sign a new striker in the summer transfer window.
The Premier League champions are ready to invest in their teams this summer under the leadership of manager Arne Slot.
Though he spends little money during his tenure at the club, the Dutch manager has gained the trust of the Liverpool class.
They are ready to support transfer market managers this summer, with strikers being a club’s priority.
Liverpool may find it difficult to afford an ISAK
The Premier League champions link to the moves of Newcastle United’s Alexander Isaac, but signing him may be difficult due to the high asking price for Newcastle.
The club’s legendary Robbie Fowler urged the Reds to make the move of the attacker who has 171 goals in 466 appearances in his career.
Talking to I, Fowler urged his former club to make the move of Aston Villa attacker Ollie Watkins.
“The problem is that the price is stupid because we know that the club could be on the lookout on No. 9.” Fowler said.
“Looking at ISAK, he’s easier to do over £100 million. He’s a great player, but Liverpool may not want to pay that.
“You can see Ollie Watkins.” Fowler will add.
“He really doesn’t fit the model in terms of what Liverpool wants given his age, but he’s an incredible player and has established and experience in the Premier League, so I’ll take him with me for a few years.”
Watkins could be the number of nine slot needs
The 29-year-old Watkins scored 16 goals this season and provided 13 assists for UNAI Emery’s side.
He has seen playing times be affected as Marcus Rashford arrived at the club this year.
The striker may be convinced to move to Anfield to replace Darwin Nunes.
By joining a club like Liverpool, he gives him the opportunity to try silverware and the opportunity to take part in the Anfield slot project is too good.
He spends them a lot lower than their best target ISAK and has experience in the Premier League that the Reds are looking for.
