Liverpool’s knack for signing players who have shone against them continues, with the latest target being a forward who has netted an impressive 23 goals this season, one of which came against Jurgen Klopp’s side.
The trend of acquiring talents who have made an impact against Liverpool dates back to Klopp’s tenure, with signings like Sadio Mane and Takumi Minamino fitting this mold. Joining them are recent acquisitions Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz, both of whom left a mark on Liverpool before joining the Merseyside club.
Invariably, these signings have proven successful for Liverpool, with Mane becoming an icon, Minamino serving as an integral squad member, and both Nunez and Diaz making notable contributions.
Despite Klopp’s impending departure, Liverpool’s transfer strategy appears unchanged, as they now set their sights on Mohamed Amoura, who impressed against Klopp’s team earlier this season.
According to reports from L’Equipe, Liverpool are vying for the services of Amoura, who currently plays for Union SG. Brighton is also in contention for his signature, reportedly leading the race.
Brighton’s strong ties with Union SG, evident in previous transfers like Kaoruo Mitoma and Simon Adingra, could give them an edge in securing Amoura’s services.
Amoura’s standout performance came when Union SG faced Liverpool in the Europa League group stages earlier this season. He caught the eye in both encounters, particularly in the second match, where he scored and provided an assist in Union SG’s 2-1 victory over Liverpool.
His impressive displays against Liverpool in the Europa League have undoubtedly piqued the interest of the Reds, signaling a potential move for the talented forward.
