Following the poor form of Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino the previous season, Liverpool are thought to be interested in reinforcing their forward line this summer.
Noel Whelan has recommended that Adama Traore of Wolves would be a good fit for the type of player they're looking for in that department.
“A player we know has got ability and has been improved under Nuno Espirito Santo,” the former Leeds United star told Football Insider.
“He had all the ability, all the pace and all the strength. However, he didn’t give you that end product in an assist or a goal when he got into good positions.
“He’s now brushed up on that, he looks a lot more assured when it gets into those positions,”
Whelan compared the former Barcelona player to Rennes highly rated youngster who performed well for Belgium at the European Championship this month.
“Very much like (Jeremy) Doku, 19-years-old that we saw for Belgium. I think he might have been linked to Liverpool as well,”
“They’re obviously looking for that type of player. That explosive, quick, powerful player that can open doors,” Whelan added.
