Liverpool have been credited with an interest in Luka Jovic.

Liverpool-linked Luka Jovic enhanced his reputation on Wednesday.

The Serbian striker opened the scoring in a friendly away to Germany last night.

According to German publication Bild in November, Liverpool wanted the Eintracht Frankfurt hitman in January, though a move never materialised.

Jovic has netted 15 goals in 24 Bundesliga appearances this season and looks set to court further interest this summer.

The Guardian reported on Wednesday that Barcelona were preparing a £43 million bid for the 21-year-old, but Liverpool fans want him at Anfield.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp probably needs another striker this summer. Mo Salah’s barren spell in front of goal has put a spotlight on Klopp’s lack of alternative goalscorers, with Sadio Mane carrying the Anfield side in recent weeks.

Roberto Firmino is a class act but he has struggled majorly this season and it seems likely that the German manager will indeed sign another marksman.

Whether that’s Jovic or not remains to be seen, but if Barcelona are legitimately interested then it might be tricky.
