Liverpool Set To Rival Fellow European Heavyweights For This Borussia Dortmund Attacker: What Should The Reds Do
Source: The 4th

In one of his recent X posts, Sky Sports reporter Patrick Berger has shared an update on Karim Adeyemi's future. Borussia Dortmund are willing to listen to offers for the German youngster and a host of European hotshots including Liverpool hold an interest ahead of a potential summer transfer.

But the Reds are not alone in the hunt as Chelsea, AC Milan and Juventus are also keeping close tabs on the 22-year-old winger. Adeyemi's development has somewhat stalled since leaving Red Bull Salzburg and he is now in talks with potential agencies after parting ways with his manager a few weeks back.

Meanwhile, BVB are closing in on Rayan Cherki to bolster their attacking third. The Frenchman's arrival could pave the way for Adeyemi's exit and the Reds, therefore, might opt for him as the replacement for Luis Diaz who has been on Barcelona's radar over the past few weeks.

The German international had his youth stints at TSV Forstenried, Bayern Munich and SpVgg Unterhaching before joining Salzburg. He was initially loaned out to feeder club FC Liefering for first-team football, and the spell in the second tier of Austria helped him secure a starting status at the Red Bull Arena. Dortmund splashed a fee of around EUR30m to tie him down in the summer of 2022, and the youngster has so far fired in 14 goals and laid on 8 more in 66 appearances across competitions.

Why Liverpool Should Step Up The Chase Although the Reds were deployed in a 4-3-3 for almost a decade, Jurgen Klopp's departure could lead to a tactical tweak in the coming days. Slot is known for using various formations as he keeps changing them based on having and not having the ball. While he prefers a 4-3-3, a 4-1-4-1 or 4-2-3-1 might also be put into practice to keep the opponents on their toes.

The Merseysiders have ample quality across the frontline. But they never had an outright 'number 10' since Philippe Coutinho's controversial exit. Fabio Carvalho remains an option, but the young Portuguese must prove his worth after failing to do so under Klopp. An impressive mid-season loan with Hull City boosted his confidence, but the Dutchman should snap up a versatile and familiar name with ample top-flight experience. His numbers might not look impressive enough, yet his pace and prowess could inject freshness and variation into Liverpool's attack.
