Liverpool should consider a move for the PSG man in January.

Jurgen Klopp manager

Liverpool have one of the most dangerous attacking trios in world football, but it could be argued that Jürgen Klopp needs to add more strength in depth to his forward line.

With this in mind, an interesting option for them could be Paris Saint-Germain winger Julian Draxler.

The Germany international joined the French giants from Wolfsburg in January 2017, but he has played second fiddle to the likes of Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Angel Di Maria.

He has made just eight league starts for PSG this season, and Liverpool could surely tempt the Ligue 1 outfit into selling the 25-year-old.

Draxler would provide more competition for the likes of Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah in the wide areas at Liverpool, and his creative guile and nouse would offer the Reds something different in the final third.

The PSG ace is already vastly experienced, despite his tender years, with 49 caps for Germany and a Ligue 1 title to his name.

He can play anywhere along the front-line, and his blistering pace, combined with his direct style of play would make him ideally suited to Klopp’s setup at Anfield.

And if Klopp does manage to bring the German forward to Merseyside in January, it could turn out to be a signing of real significance for Liverpool.
