Liverpool are hoping to improve their attacking unit with the signing of Antoine Semenyo during the January transfer window.
The player is said to be a target for Manchester United, according to INews. The 25-year-old has been outstanding in the Premier League this season, with six league goals already.
He has shown that he is capable of competing at the highest level and playing for the biggest clubs in the country. Liverpool need more quality and depth in the attacking unit, and the African would be a great addition.
Antoine Semenyo would improve Liverpool
He is well established in the Premier League. He could have an instant impact. Liverpool have been missing someone who can carry the ball forward and beat defenders in a one-on-one situation. They have yet to properly replace Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo has not lived up to expectations on the left flank.
The Bournemouth striker would be an upgrade on the Netherlands international. In addition to this, Mohammed Salah was also unable to reach the desired level. Liverpool are increasingly concerned about their form and are looking to add more flair and unpredictability to the attacking unit.
The 25-year-old has a mysterious release clause in his contract, and it will be interesting to see if Liverpool can trigger it in January. The opportunity to join the reigning champions will be very exciting for the player, and it would be a huge step up in his career. Semenyo will probably be expensive.
Man United keen on Semenyo
Meanwhile, Manchester United are also monitoring him. It will be interesting to see if they decide to take the edge off their rivals and go for the African in January. They have signed a few wide players recently, and investing in Semenyo in January might be unlikely.
It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
