Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke is reportedly on the radar of West Ham United and Crystal Palace.

West Ham United and Crystal Palace are interested in signing Dominic Solanke on loan from Liverpool in the January transfer window, according to The Sun.

It has been reported by the British tabloid that Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is ready to send Solanke out on loan in January.

Palace are claimed to be big fans of the 21-year-old striker, while West Ham will reportedly have to convince the England international that he would start for the Hammers.

Good decision?

Solanke is struggling for playing time at Liverpool at the moment, and spending time on the substitutes’ bench or out of the squad is not going to help the former Chelsea prospect in his development.

It would make sense for the Reds to send the youngster out on loan in the January transfer window.

True, Solanke – who earns £25,000 per week as salary, according to Spotrac.com – may not be guaranteed a place in the starting lineup at Palace or West Ham, at least he would have a better chance of getting playing time for the Eagles or the Hammers.
