Liverpool ready to bid for £51m ace

Liverpool won the Premier League last season, behaving like him. The Arne Slot team spent a lot this summer, and there is still more, with FSG recognized the importance of uniting this position of strength.

With the presence of the Eintracht Frankfurt Hugocefist on the threshold of his 79 million pounds of transition to Mercyside, Liverpool has the upgrade of Darwin Nunez to which they are eager.

Although a lot of work has been rehabilitated in the summer market, there is a lot to do. Louis Diaz is scheduled to move to Bayern Munich, after all.

If he leaves, there is no doubt that RDS will need to find an alternative.

The brief list of Diaz Liverpool alternatives

With the appearance of Diaz more and more than Liverpool’s departure this summer, the likes of Real Madrid Rodrigo and Newcastle United Anthony Gordon were described as possible alternatives.

The problem with such goals is that it will cost a sharp amount of money. Perhaps very slope. Although Liverpool can withdraw such deals and remain within good books of profit and sustainability, is it not useful to target one of the waves of a character, with great quality already within the opening band?

For this reason, Reds seems to be ready to make an offer in favor of Lyon Malek Fovana, who has been making waves in the first -class period over the past 18 months.

According to reports, the sale of Chiesa will enhance the FSG transportation plans, with the Belgium suite on the Liverpool radar for several months. Mercysider is expected to move “the Belgian” as soon as the Italians leave.

Lyon Malik Fovana

Lyon is estimated at the 20 -year -old, up to 51 million pounds, but the sports director of Liverpool Richard Hughes will be appointed to secure his signature for a cheaper fee, cut in installments.

Why should Liverpool owner Fofana sign?

Fofana is a better talent, but he has not yet seen the horizon that is considered its full potential. However, he crossed 62 games with Lyon (which he joined from Belgium Genk in January 2024), scored 15 goals and presented seven assists.

The last period, the multi -use pavilion has achieved 17 target contributions despite the start of only 23 games in all competitions.

There is a long way, but Fovana may appear as a greater talent than EKITIKE in the long run, which is at another stage in its development at the present time, it is true, but with Fovana already as it already has already done over the past few years, there is a question that can be among the most beautiful football in a few years.

And consider how the opening succeeds in training young talents at incredible levels, and this is confirmed. Journalist Antonio Mango drew attention to the “possibilities of changing the game” by Fovana, while journalist Dave Bajoa praised the “electricity” pace.

If Liverpool is selling Diaz, this is the man he should go to. And that without even shedding light on Cody Jacob, who played regularly off the left side of the last period team, and thus will reduce the burden of a young man like Fofana when he made his way to the Premier League stage.

Hogo Ekitike 2024-25 season in (immortal) numbers

You just need to look at Ekitike’s growth in recent years. The 23 -year -old left Rims for Paris Saint -Germain in a deal worth a 30 million pounds in 2022 (Newcastle United rejected) where he was lost in the crowd and jumped into the German league, with Frankfurt.

The final term Ekitike was in Ligue 1 with PSG in 2022/23, and from that peripheral campaign, you may not get the most accurate scale on his group of skills during that young stage in his homeland.

But the previous season, with Rims, makes a more stable comment. From this, we can examine the quality of the French teenager and see how it compared to Fofana, who reached 20 years in March.

Ekitike is the center, but it is moving and sporty dynamic. At that stage of his journey, the Liverpool star, who will be close to the left, was introduced to the emergence of this natural tendency to score goals.

Both, moreover, are from a fixed defensive presence, as it is treated at a rate that wanders in its quality as the defense line of their first team.

But the goals are Fofana’s Forte, and the fungal clinical edge may see him with a more dangerous power than EKITIKE, who is three years old.

Fovana ranked first among the top 10 % of the midfielders and wings throughout Europe last season to achieve the non -advanced goals, and scored the highest 2 % of progressive campaigns per 90, according to FBRF, which completely indicates this scrambled mix of pace and cycle.

Pregnancy is progressive if the ball is moved towards the opponent’s goal at least 10 yards from the starting point or is transferred to the penalty area.

It goes without saying that there will be a transitional period in which Vovana will not perform with a smooth Diaz’s completion, do not look at the same level of EKITIKIK (which may need himself some time to adapt to the frequency of the English game).

Malick -fana-Lyon

However, however, Liverpool can hit gold by choosing to spend something on the field with a value of 100 million pounds on one of Gordon or Rodrigo and instead he spends a more intelligent character on Fofana, a young, talented and hungry to prove himself.

It will be a long -term better deal, which would see Liverpool enjoying their work fruits and that will be widely grown in one of the most fearful players in Europe.
