Here are four cheaper options that the Reds should perhaps consider instead of FC Porto’s Colombian…

Andre-Pierre Gignac, Marseille

The Frenchman has scored ten goals in just thirteen appearances so far this season, and could be available for just £11 million according to the Express. Liverpool would however have to beat Arsenal to the signing of the 28-year-old who is out of contract in the summer.

Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, Schalke

Another whose contract ends in the summer, Huntelaar could be on the market for as little as £3 million. Although he isn’t getting any younger at 31-years-old that is a very good deal for a proven goalscorer.

Saido Berahino, West Brom

The highest scoring Englishman in the Premier League would not be cheap, but he would be less than £30 million. The Daily Mail have claimed that £25 million would be the going price for the 21-year-old.

Seydou Doumbia, CSKA Moscow

The Ivorian helped CSKA tear Manchester City apart last month, and could be brought to Liverpool relatively cheaply at £15 million. However, any plans could be scuppered by contract talks that have recently been opened between the player and his Russian club.
