Liverpool fans suggest a number of top strikers for Jurgen Klopp if he fails to land Timo Werner in the summer.
Timo Wener to Liverpool has been one of the biggest transfer stories in Europe for a while now. The German international has been one of Bundesliga’s best players this season and Sky Sports claimed last month that he is in favour of a move to Anfield.
However, Werner would likely to start the campaign as a backup to Liverpool’s front three of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mo Salah and that could complicate things over a potential transfer.
LFC Transfer room, a Liverpool fan page on Twitter, asked Reds fans to name their alternatives to Timo Werner if the German decides against joining the club and the suggestions were plenty.
Some Reds fans looked straight at their Premier League rivals, urging Klopp to raid Wolves for Raul Jimenez and Diogo Jota while Norwich City’s Emiliano Buendia, although not a natural striker, was a popular choice.
Bilbao’s Inaki Williams was a popular choice as well and the versatile La Liga star would certainly be a brilliant player for Klopp in his system.
A few Liverpool fans weren’t shy to suggest some of the most expensive names in world football at the moment. Lautaro Martinez, Jadon Sancho and even Kylian Mbappe were among the names suggested but they are unlikely to come in, especially as a backup.
The surprise names that popped up were Newcastle United’s Allan Saint-Maximin, Everton’s Richarlison and Watford’s Ismaila Sarr who was a nightmare for Liverpool just a few weeks ago.
Klopp would have his desk filled with names if he was to ask the fans about a signing this summer but unfortunately for Reds supporters, it doesn’t work that way.
However, that doesn’t stop the fans from giving out their opinions and here are a few suggestions that Klopp could look at this summer.
