Transfer News: Liverpool monitoring 23-year-old Watford forward Ismaila Sarr
According to Spanish outlet Fichajes (h/t Liverpool Echo), Liverpool could make a move for 23-year-old Ismaila Sarr in the near future.
The Senegalese forward has been on the Merseyside team’s radar for quite a while now and according to the report, the Reds could reignite their pursuit of the Watford forward.
Liverpool have built a fearsome attacking lineup under the keen eyes of Jurgen Klopp. Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, and Mohamed Salah have terrorised defenders across the globe with their attacking prowess ever since the German manager arrived at the club.
Despite this great partnership, Mane and Firmino have witnessed a certain fluctuation in their form and Salah is yearning for a new deal at Anfield. Their goal-scoring exploits have been an instrumental part in Liverpool’s success over the years but an aging forward line and the continuous burden of a hectic schedule are bound to take their toll on the best of players.
The impact that Ismaila Sarr’s addition can make at Liverpool
Sarr can be the perfect addition to the Reds squad. The 23-year-old Senegalese has been a dependable asset for Watford over the years. The former Stade Rennais F.C. player has scored 23 goals and provided 16 assists in 77 games across all competitions or the Hornets.
The Senegalese forward could be a good long-term investment for the club. He may have to fight for his place in the starting lineup but could make a great impact if any move to Anfield were to happen. It could also give Klopp some more attacking options to help him rotate his squad and rest key players for important competitions and matches.

Ismaila Sarr has the experience of playing in the Championship as well as the Premier League which could be a great plus point for the Anfield outfit. It could help him adjust well to the dynamics of the team and the league. With that in mind, any speculation right now is only tentative but the addition of another youthful attacker could be of great use to the Merseyside team.
