Some Liverpool fans want to see Marko Arnautovic arrive at Anfield.

Liverpool’s attack may be feared, given that they have Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah at their disposal, but they haven’t quite hit top form together this term.

Xherdan Shaqiri has shown promise in a complementary role, but signing another striker may be a priority in January with Divock Origi touted for an exit.

Jurgen Klopp may well be looking for another striker to bolster his options, and fans believe that that he should be looking to bring in West Ham United’s Marko Arnautovic.

Arnautovic, 29, has thrived for West Ham since being converted into a striker by David Moyes around a year ago, scoring 11 goals in the Premier League last term.

This season, the Austrian has hit five goals in 10 Premier League games, leading the West Ham attack admirably – but he may just be eyeing a move away from East London.

Arnautovic’s brother and agent Danijel Arnautovic has told Gianluca Di Marzio that the Hammers ace wants to play in the Champions League and win trophies, as he is ready to take the next step in his career with a big move elsewhere.

Chelsea and Everton were mentioned as potential destinations, but Liverpool fans believe that the Reds should be ready to move and bring the experienced striker to Anfield as competition for Roberto Firmino.

Some Liverpool fans feel that Arnautovic would give Liverpool an added edge in the final third, urging the club to start making moves to sign him now ahead of January – but only at a reasonable price given his age.
