Liverpool Have A Three Man Forward Shortlist For This Summer

Liverpool Have A Three Man Forward Shortlist For This Summer

The Reds will be planning their assault on the Premier League title next season.

Liverpool already have one of the most exciting forward lines in the Premier League, even the world, but Jurgen Klopp has a very exciting three man shortlist to add to his ranks in the summer.

Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and of course Mo Salah. Liverpool's front three have been terrorising defences all season and that's all after they lost Philippe Coutinho for a huge fee to Barcelona back in January.

Liverpool have bagged 80 goals in the Premier League this season and Salah himself has 31 of them, which is ridiculous, and there's still one game of the season left as Harry Kane chases the Egyptian down for top scorer.

Only Manchester City have scored more than Jurgen Klopp's side and their 105 goals in an anomaly, although admittedly they could repeat that next season.

Klopp's side will likely only finish fourth this season but could still win the Champions League and there's no doubt there's been an improvement this year. So how to go the next step?

According to the Daily Mail they'll be starting that off by signing a new forward. The paper reports that Bordeaux's Malcom, Borussia Dortmund's Christian Pulisic and Bayer Leverkusen's Leon Bailey are all in the shortlist.

Malcom has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League in the past with Manchester United, Spurs and Arsenal all showing an interest in the Brazilian forward.

In January both of the north London clubs reportedly looked to buy him with Spurs opting for Lucas Moura and Arsenal going for Henrikh Mkhitaryan as part of the Alexis Sanchez deal.

Pulisic and Bailey, two of the Bundesliga's highest regarded talents, have also been previously linked with a move to the Premier League.

The Reds have also been strongly linked with a move for Lyon's Nabil Fekir. The French forward had reportedly had talks with Liverpool already, as per L'Equipe, but the player's dad rejected the claims.

The future is certainly exciting for Liverpool, especially if they sign any of these three players.
