Liverpool want La Liga forward as Mohamed Salah 'alternative'

Liverpool eye Real Betis winger Luis Henrique

Liverpool’s interest in Real Betis’ talented right winger Luiz Henrique has been the subject of recent speculation. However, they face competition from Aston Villa for the Brazilian’s signature, following an eventful season for him in La Liga.

Despite the competition, Jurgen Klopp is apparently keen on acquiring the services of the 22-year-old, who could serve as an alternative to the prolific Mohamed Salah. The news comes for Fichajes via Liverpool ECHO.

Luiz Henrique‘s performances last season showcased his attacking prowess, as he contributed three goals and seven assists in 43 appearances across all competitions for Real Betis.

Klopp’s interest in Luiz Henrique suggests that he is considering options to bolster his attacking options and provide support and competition for established stars like Salah. The Brazilian’s versatility on the right flank could offer Klopp greater tactical flexibility, enabling him to rotate his front line without compromising the team’s attacking threat.

He can play on either flank, so that adds to the versatility. However, Liverpool will have to fend off competition from Aston Villa, who also have their sights set on the player. Unai Emery would know a thing or two about the player, given his previous job with Villarreal in La Liga.

If Liverpool can secure Luiz Henrique’s transfer, it would be an exciting addition to their squad. The young winger’s potential, combined with Klopp’s track record of nurturing and developing talent, could see him flourish in the red shirt.
