Liverpool ENTER talks to sign 40 goal striker | OneFootball

Liverpool have reportedly entered transfer talks with a player who has scored more than 40 goals last season.

After securing the signature of Jeremie Frimpong, Armin Pecsi, Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez, Richad Hughes' focus will fall on the Reds' attack.

Liverpool want to sign a goal-scoring no.9 in order to replace the soon to be departing Darwin Nunez. For that purpose the Reds have set their eyes on Alexander Isak or Julian Alvarez.

However, Victor Osimhen and Hugo Ekitike remain as alternative options, should the Reds fail to land their primary targets, which seems plausible considering neither Newcastle United nor Atletico Madrid will be very eager to sell.

Any of the names above would be a significant improvement on Liverpool's current options. Arne Slot needs a proper no.9 and Osimhen, Alvarez, Isak and Ekitike would all score buckets of goals for the Reds.

On top of those arrivals, it seems like Liverpool are also plotting for the future and looking to sign a special attacker who scored over 40 goals last season.

According to DaveOCKOP Liverpool have entered talks to sign Salford City's Will Wright and have already made several bids to sign the youngster.

The report claims that Manchester City and Arsenal are also interested in the 17-year-old teenage forward but Liverpool are keen to beat the duo to his signature.

The youngster made his debut for Salford at just 16-years-old, and even made an appearance against Manchester City in the FA Cup, becoming one of the youngest players to make an appearance for the club in the competition.

In addition to that he also debuted for the club in League Two and in the EFL Trophy.

Standing at 1.90 metres, Wright is regarded as one of the best young forwards in England at the moment. He scored over 40 goals in Salford's academy and reserves team last season.
