Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are among the clubs impressed by Genoa’s free-scoring striker Krzysztof Piatek, according to Teamtalk.

The website claims Piatek caught the eye of Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City in the Italians’ 4-1 defeat against Lazio last weekend.

The trio are said to have been present to watch Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, the Lazio midfielder who scored and assisted in the Biancocelesti’s success.

And, according to Teamtalk, such was Piatek’s impact – the Poland international scored Genoa’s only goal that day – Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City returned to check on him against Chievo in midweek.

That game saw Genoa bounce back with a 2-0 victory, in which Piatek continued his run of scoring in every single appearance for the Rossoblu.

After Sunday’s win at Frosinone, the 23-year-old has now found the net 12 times in seven outings – making a mockery of the £4 million Cracovia received for him earlier this year.

And Teamtalk reports Genoa now rate Piatek, who is under contract until 2022, at seven-and-a-half-times that amount – £30 million.

Would Piatek be a good addition for Liverpool or Tottenham Hotspur?
