Liverpool may have missed out on Timo Werner, but they could still look to bring other attackers to Anfield this summer.

The Reds need a new forward to come in, as Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane need competition.

Now, the Daily Mail claim that Liverpool have Watford winger Ismaila Sarr on their radar this summer as Jurgen Klopp seeks a winger.

Sarr notably dismantled Liverpool back in February, registering two goals and an assist as Watford inflicted a 3-0 defeat on the Reds.

The 22-year-old impressed throughout the season, but ultimately couldn’t keep Watford in the Premier League.

Signed from Rennes last summer, Sarr is unlikely to fancy playing in the Championship, especially if huge clubs like Liverpool want him.

The Senegalese international is quick and direct, whilst he can also play on either flank and is close friends with Liverpool star Mane.

Liverpool fans have been taking to Twitter to react to these rumours, believing that he has the potential to be ‘world class’ under Klopp.

Others urged Mane to get the deal over the line, ultimately believing that Sarr would be a great player to bring in – even after suffering relegation.
