Liverpool have been active in the summer transfer window to strengthen several positions.
The Reds have already secured the signings of Jeremie Frimpong and Florian Wirtz to improve their defence and their creativity.
Arne Slot is showing no signs to stop in the transfer market this summer as the signing of Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez edges closer.
The Premier League champions then plan to turn their attention towards signing a new striker to lead their attack.
Having scored goals for fun last season, they are willing to add even more firepower to their attack for next season.
Arne Slot needs more options in attack next season
Mohamed Salah was responsible for most of the goals they scored last season due to the inconsistent performances of attackers Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota.
Slot is now ready to address that issue in the market by targeting a move for one of the most sought-after attackers in the game.
Victor Osimhen’s name is once again dominating the summer transfer headlines, with the prolific Nigerian striker firmly on Liverpool’s radar. The 26-year-old is reportedly available for transfer, with just one year remaining on his contract at Napoli, and a €75 million release clause in place for clubs outside Italy.
He netted an incredible 37 goals in 41 appearances across all competitions, playing a pivotal role in Galatasaray’s domestic double, clinching both the Super Lig title and the Turkish Cup.
“There is a market connection between Napoli and Liverpool,” Valter De Maggio of Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli said according to Area Napoli.
“The English club wants Osimhen and Napoli from this point of view does not make any discounts on the clause, therefore asking for 75 million euros as per the contract.”
Victor Osimhen is heading out of Napoli this summer
Napoli understand that the likelihood of Osimhen seeing out his final year is minimal.
The player himself is believed to be open to a Premier League move, and Liverpool are seen as a compelling destination.
If the Reds manage to pull off this signing, they will not only be gaining a world-class goal scorer but also making a statement to their rivals that they are going to be even stronger next season.
Osimhen could be the focal point of a new-look Liverpool front line which would have players like Wirtz alongside the ever-reliable Salah.

Rather undermines credibility when you call Liverpool the ‘red devils’
Why on earth would you call us “The Red Devils”???
We are NEVER referred to as that.
That’s literally the name of our fiercest rivals.
POOR!!!
That’s the way to go Liverpool. Osimhen is a fantastic striker and you have the option to sign him. He will be a great focal point of an unstoppable attack. Brilliant player. Please don’t let this opportunity slip!
this means Liverpool will win the premiership again. Trust me. Osimhen is fantastic in the air, and with Salah, Wirtz, and other fantastic players around him – no one can stop Liverpool.
Liverpool FC will win the premier League next season if we just sign either isak, Alvarez or Osimhen
Victor Osimhen is the ideal proven No. 9 who will deliver to the LF c expectations, so long as he accepts salary cut⚽
Osimhenis the right man for the job
Bad idea . He’s African, Salah is African . The African Nations Cup is coming up and both players would miss weeks of PL . It’s bad enough losing one player out of your starting eleven. 2 would be catastrophic
Well said sir. I am also concerned about his discipline. But a good footballer who will get you a lot of goals.
I couldn’t agree with you more. it’s suicidal. Isakson or Alvarez would be ideal
you made a point there but Gakpo and Jota can step up their games and fill the shoes or vacuums left by the two superstars
No one else, but Osimhen, he’s right candidate for the slot
