Liverpool’s striker targets: the pros and cons of five players who could still make Reds switch

Posted by

Alexandre Lacazette (Lyon)

Pros: He’s one of the most feared strikers on the planet right now. After he smashed in 31 goals in all competitions last season and fired his way into the France squad, you could forgive the European giants for forming a queue for his signature. He’s strong, quick and powerful and would be many people’s dream addition to our front line.

Cons: The price is an issue but he’s likely to cost less than Benteke, and considering his record few people would likely question a similar fee. There’s always going to be a chance that he won’t take to English football, but it’s hard to see him failing anywhere right now. The only major drawback is the battle we’d likely have to endure to get him.
