Sasa Kalajdzic is making a real name for himself this season – and his form could earn him a huge move this summer.
The Austrian target man, standing at a giant 6ft 7in, has been on fire for Stuttgart in recent weeks, earning huge praise.
Kalajdzic has smashed 13 goals in 25 games for Stuttgart this term, including eight goals in his last eight games for the Bundesliga side.
On the international stage, Kalajdzic scored twice against Scotland on Thursday night; a close-range tap in and a stunning, acrobatic header.
A Premier League move could soon materialise for Kalajdzic, with West Ham keen according to the Daily Mail.
Tutto Juve add that Everton and Newcastle United want him too, whilst Kalajdzic himself told Bild that he wants a move to Liverpool.
Now, Austria boss Franco Foda has told LAOLA1 that he thinks Kalajdzic has development ‘extremely’ in just a matter of weeks.
Foda raved about Kalajdzic’s anticipation inside the penalty area, and it would be little surprise to see Liverpool take notice of his quality if he continues in this form.
“He has developed extremely in the last few weeks and months and has taken the momentum with him. In the beginning, you have always noticed what qualities he has, but now he has also been ripped off in front of goal, where a striker has to be.”
“He has good anticipation in the penalty area. It was no coincidence that he scored these goals. We are obviously delighted that we now have more alternatives and a striker who scores. It’s all the better for a coach, when he is spoiled for choice,” he added.
