Liverpool they are now seriously interested in a “staggering” £60m signing Premier League star, according to the report.

Sloto’s side sets the pace

The Reds produced a dramatic late victory away to Brentford on Saturday, with Darwin Nunez’s quick-fire double securing an important three points in the Premier League title race.

Arsenal dropped two points despite a two-goal lead against Aston Villa later in the day, making the win all the sweeter for Arne Slottthe team, which now has a six-point lead at the top of the table, with a game in hand.

Things are certainly improving for Liverpool, but FSG are still tasked with securing the long-term futures of three of their stars, with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil Van Dijk and Mohamed Salah yet to commit to new contracts.

With reports suggesting Salah is now on the verge of signing for Al-HilalThe Reds may need to step up their search for a replacement over the next few months – and have now identified a potential target.

According to a report by Rousing The Kop, Liverpool are now seriously interested in signing Bryan Mbeum from Brentford in the summer, after impressing with his performances in the Premier League this season.

A move away in January is not on the cards, but the Merseyside club are now closely monitoring the situation ahead of the summer transfer window.

However, FSG may have to break the bank to get the deal done, as the Bees will hold out a fee of £50-60m for the striker.

The Reds are not the only Premier League side vying for Mbeum’s signature, as Newcastle United and Arsenal also have interest, which could further increase his price tag.

Mbeumo could be a fantastic signing

The Brentford star received high praise from journalist Dom Smith earlier this season, who suggested he has played a key role in the Bees’ impressive run of form this season.

The Cameroon international scored 13 goals and provided three assists in 22 Premier League appearances this season, which was a year-on-year improvement. improvements since he made his breakthrough to the best league in the 2021/22 season.

At 25, the French-born winger could now be ready to take the next step in his career by signing for one of the Premier League’s top clubs, so it’s promising news that Liverpool are in the running for his signature.

However, FSG’s main priority should be to prolong Salah’s stay at Anfield, as the Egyptian will be almost impossible to replace.
