‘We Need’: Arne Slot reveals that he needs another attacker while Liverpool continues with the summer company

Cody Gakpo, Hugo Ekitike and Mohamed Salah were all on the score sheet when Liverpool Bournemouth defeated 4-2 on Matchday one of the Premier League on Friday evening to start their deficiency defense on a winning note.

The performance of Ekitike was especially impressive when he grabbed a goal and helped Gakpo’s strike, while he also helped without the ball. Despite his purchase, Arne has Slot confirmed to Sky Sports that he needs another attacker. The Dutchman said,

“I mainly see Hugo as a number nine who can also play from the left or play together with another number nine, it is clear that with Darwin Gone and Luis Diaz, and even last season, we had five or six options. I think I, again, Diogo, Diogo must, I have to mention it. So we have to have an attack.”

Ekitike is the only offensive signing of Liverpool this summer, since Florian Wirtz is playing in midfield. The club is linked to Alexander Isak and with the player who is forced to leave Newcastle United, a switch to Anfield can soon occur.

Football Insider has reported That Liverpool will make an £ 120 million bid for Isak and with the magpies who want to end their impasse with the Swedish international, it is fair to think that the importance of the Reds is progressing in the right direction.

Guehi certificate would take out a successful transfer window

In addition to Alexander Isak, Marc Guehi is also heavily coupled With a switch to Liverpool in recent times. The Crystal Palace star is in the last year of his contract in Selhurst Park and will be sold because the Eagles do not want to lose him for free.

Guehi’s price tag is currently worth £ 35 million, an amount that Liverpool would regard as an excellent bargain for the English international. Together with Giovanni Leoni, who has already joined the Reds, the Palace Man would strengthen the Backline of Liverpool.

After Friday’s screening against Bournemouth, there will certainly be worries about how long Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk can hold the fort after they have flooded a large part of last season, while Joe Gomez’s display was also unflatio.

Liverpool’s coaching staff will be happy with the signing sessions of Alexander Isak and Marc Guehi before the transfer window ends, and together with the players they have taken over, they will believe that they can defend the Premier League title.
