Having wrapped up almost all of his transfer dealings before the start of the 2014-2015 season, the only spot left to fill for Brendan Rodgers is the one vacated by Uruguayan PFA Player of the Year 2013-2014. The former Liverpool no. 7 swapped Anfield for Camp Nou soon after the end of the FIFA World Cup for a reported 75 million GBP transfer. Rodgers, who had begun strengthening his team well before the departure of his star striker was left with another spot to fill following Suarez’ departure to the Catalans.
With Spanish misfit Iago Aspas out on loan at Sevilla for the rest of the season and Fabio Borini on the verge of a permanent transfer to Sunderland after having spent the previous season on loan at the Stadium of Light, Rodgers’ is left with just 2 senior strikers in the likes of Daniel Sturridge and Rickie Lambert. Speculations and rumours have thrown up some very interesting names in the past month or so. The move for Queens Park Rangers’ French Striker Loic Remy broke down despite having agreed a transfer fee due to a failed medical earlier this window. Still searching for a striker, in past week and half, the names of Radamel Falcao of AS Monaco and Edinson Cavani of Paris St. Germain
have been mentioned. However a more realistic and likely target that has made the headlines in that of Cameroon striker Samuel Eto’o who is currently a free agent.Samuel Eto’o
While the news of Eto’o donning Liverpool Red after having spent the last season in Chelsea Blue has brought out a mixed reaction among the fans, fans and experts have highlighted how signing the Cameroonian striker might be a step back for Liverpool considering his age and declining powers. The fact that Eto’o would be earning almost as much as Steven Gerrard due to his exorbitantly high wages despite being a free agent doesn’t go down well with Liverpool fans either. However, here’s a look at why Samuel Eto’o might just be the right fix for Rodgers.
