Whilst Liverpool’s attacking options are deep, there is also an element of uncertainty surrounding them at the minute.
Mo Salah may be leaving the club at the end of the season, there is a carousel of replacement ideas for Darwin Nuñez and Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo are at odds for a starting role.
Now German outlet BILD are reporting that previous Liverpool target and current Eintracht Frankfurt striker Omar Marmoush has the long term goal of playing in the Premier League.
The report states that the Egyptian striker ‘still dreams’ of ‘joining top Premier League clubs like Liverpool or Arsenal’ who he was linked to previously over the summer.
The 25-year old joins up with Liverpool’s talisman Salah on international duty and no doubt is aware of the situation at the club. Marmoush generally plays a centre forward role for both club and country, yet can also occupy the left-hand side or deeper roles in an advanced midfield position.
Whilst Diogo Jota seems to have the starting centre forward position locked down, a move for Marmoush would bring into question the long-term future of Darwin Nuñez at the club, who has clearly become second choice in the position.
And with Marmoush’s versatility - as well as Dominik Szoboszlai still failing to nail down the advanced midfield position in new head coach Arne Slot’s system - the club could see the Egyptian as a better future option.
Marmoush has had an electric start to the season, with seven goals and five assists in Frankfurt’s opening eight games in all competitions.
And whilst Bundesliga tax can rear its ugly head, he sits top of the league’s scoring charts at the minute above the likes of Harry Kane and Liverpool target Florian Wirtz.
Frankfurt turned down a bid for Marmoush from Nottingham Forest in the summer. Some dominoes will have to fall before there is movement on Liverpool’s attacking front, but Marmoush would be a welcome goalscoring addition.
