Liverpool want to bring another attacker to the club in order to help end their rut.
The Reds, who have already lost five Premier League games so far this season, are under real pressure after winning the title in 2024/25, with Arne Slot struggling to get a tune out of his side.

After huge sums were spent on bringing Alexander Isak, Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez and Jeremier Frimpong to the club, questions are naturally being asked of Slot's credentials.
But new reports suggest Liverpool's spending isn't done just yet, with another new attacker said to be under consideration over a January move.
According to Spanish publication Sport, Liverpool, Arsenal and Barcelona are all in the picture to sign Lyons Malick Fofana.
Fofana, 20, continues to impress for the Ligue 1 giants, and was the subject of much speculation across the summer transfer window.
After continuing to catch the eye this term in France, Lyon general manager Michael Gerlinger spoke to Canal+, ruling out a potential exit in January.
I said it in September, selling Malick Fofana was never on the table for January. Well see what happens in the coming weeks. Financially, things arent great, so we have to see what we can do. But it wont be a transfer like Malick Fofana, of course not, he said.
Fofana is set to jet away on internatioanly duty with Belgium once again this month, and did recently admit in an interview that interest from Chelsea and Liverpool has already been in his consideration.
There was interest from those two clubs, but ultimately it wasnt concrete enough. Ive thought about a transfer, but I think its more important now that I play a lot, and that has to happen at Lyon. Because I still have progress to make, he said.
Chelsea, of course, opted to sign Jamie Gittens of Borussia Dortmund instead, and it remains to be seen whether Liverpool go back into the market for the talented Lyon man across the January period.
Fofana is worth 30 million, according to Transfermarkt. The Reds host Nottingham Forest after the international break when Premier League action returns.
