Liverpool eye up swoop for 'world-class' 101 G/A attacker with 15 trophies to his name - report

Liverpool have been boosted in their efforts to sign Serge Gnabry this summer, with the German reportedly considering leaving Bayern Munich.

The 26-year-old has been an impressive servant for Bayern, helping them win the Champions League in 2020 (one of 15 trophies he has lifted throughout his club career) and proving to be arguably one of Europe’s best wide players in recent years.

Gnabry has scored 61 goals and registered 40 assists for the Bundesliga giants, totalling 101 goal contributions, and has also been hailed as a ‘world-class’ footballer by Rio Ferdinand.

It could be that the former Arsenal man eyes up a fresh challenge this summer, though, acting as a potential boost for Liverpool.

According to Goal, Gnabry is weighing up his future at Bayern, with his current deal expiring in 2023. His current club are trying to tie him down to a new contract, but so far that mission is proving fruitless.

Both Liverpool and Real Madrid are thought to be interested in snapping him up, with the Reds viewing him as a possible long-term replacement for Mohamed Salah.

While Gnabry is a superb player whose direct style and end product could fit in perfectly at Liverpool, it is difficult to envisage him heading to Anfield this summer.

Jurgen Klopp already has five excellent attacking players at his disposal, while recent reports suggest that Salah is close to agreeing a new deal, which would likely further put paid to a move for the Germany international.

The only way that signing Gnabry would make sense is if Sadio Mane left instead, with the Senegal star out of contract at the end of next season.
