Liverpool are claimed to be in line to attempt a January move for long-term target Jarrod Bowen after failing to land his signature in this summer’s transfer window.
The West Ham United star forward has courted attention from Jurgen Klopp’s camp but Liverpool will now have to face competition for Bowen with the Premier League duo Spurs and Leicester City joining the race.
Reports from The Liverpool Echo have suggested that the Merseyside giants are plotting a swoop for the 24-year-old as early as the January window in order to fend off the increasing competition for the wide man.
West Ham United, meanwhile, remain reluctant to part ways with a player they signed only last year but could be lured into the sale should Liverpool table a sizable transfer fee with Jurgen Klopp keen on adding to his attacking options at Anfield.
Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane are all set to turn 30 over the course of this ongoing campaign and Diogo Jota is the lone go-to man to provide cover for the star trio in the forward roles.
