As per an exclusive CaughtOffside story, Slot has discussed possible targets with Liverpool officials informally.
Santiago Gimenez has surfaced when talking about these targets.
Over Slot’s career at Feyenoord, Gimenez has been the star player, scoring over 20 goals in each of the previous two seasons.
Spurs is one among the teams interested in Gimenez, who declared on Friday that he has decided to move to England.
With Slot in command, Liverpool, meantime, might have an advantage.Anything Liverpool on X: ” With Liverpool and Spurs interested in signing him, Feyenoord’s 23-year-old attacker is anticipated to go this summer. This season Santiago Gimenez has scored 26 goals.
Though mostly inexperienced, Gimenez has ambitions.
Gimenez is said to have “superstar” potential and to score a lot of goals, thus his arrival to Liverpool may cause some to scratch their heads.
Is it someone Slot knows well and wants to bring in? That will be the first question.
Slot is not likely to have the last word considering the FSG agenda.
The other problem is that, even if Gimenez has scored goals, the Eredivisie is not the same as the Premier League, and there is always a chance he won’t progress.
Even yet, at just £30 million, he might be a good investment for the Reds, and with Darwin Nunez struggling, a new forward could benefit the whole squad.
