Eight strikers Liverpool should target instead of Benteke and Ings

Posted by

Luiz Adriano (Shakhtar Donetsk)

The 28-year-old is available on a free in the summer, so it would be a no-brainer to at least consider making an approach when his contract expires in Ukraine. He boasts a handy record in the domestic league – with eight goals in 17 games – however, it is in the Champions League where he is really making a name for himself this season. Currently, he remains the competition’s top goalscorer with nine goals, one more than Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Five of those strikes came in one half against BATE Borisov.

Bas Dost (Wolfsburg)

Dost spent the early part of this season as Wolfsburg’s back-up option. However, when he was given his opportunity, he proved that he should have been selected for the first-team all along. Upon the return from the winter break, he bagged a brace in the surprise thumping of Bayern Munich. The 25-year-old now has 13 goals in 17 games, and has helped his side to become Bayern’s nearest challengers in the Bundesliga.
