Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp still likes Ismaila Sarr, according to TEAMtalk.
It has been reported that Liverpool want to sign Barcelona attacker Ousmane Dembele on a free transfer next summer.
The Premier League club’s sporting director Michael Edwards has told his bosses that they need to capitalise on the chance to bring the 24-year-old France international to Anfield on a free transfer at the end of the season.
According to the report, Liverpool manager Klopp still likes Watford winger Sarr, who was on the radar of the Reds in the summer of 2021 as well.
Klopp is reportedly a ‘huge admirer’ of Dembele as well.
Ismaila Sarr over Ousmane Dembele?
Dembele is a very good attacking player, but we think that Liverpool should move for Sarr instead.
Yes, Dembele will come at no transfer fee next summer, but the former Borussia Dortmund star has had injury problems at Barcelona over the years.
Sarr is 23 years of age and is playing in the Premier League.
Yes, Watford will want big money for the winger, but in the long run, the Senegal international – described by his teammate Ben Foster as “frightening” and “phenomenal” on Premier League’s YouTube channel in September – would be of better value.
Sarr has scored four goals in seven Premier League matches so far this season.
