Liverpool have one of the best forwards in the premier league this season, all thanks to the club’s boss Jurgen Klopp who signed Mohamed Salah from Serie A side Roma during the summer transfer window.
The African star has been in top form for his new side, and has settled quickly to life at Anfield.
During the past summer window, Monaco star player Thomas Lemar was a hot prospect who was linked with a handful of top European clubs including Liverpool.
The French international eventually stayed with his side for the new campaign despite being in the news for a switch away from Monaco.
Apart from Liverpool, another premier league side that tried bringing Lemar into the English top flight is Arsenal.
The Emirates club made attempts to sign the talented player, and according to the Mirror, they are confident they can still get him next summer.
However, the North London club won’t be having things easy due to interests from Liverpool and Barcelona who are also in the race.
The France international played a pivotal role in helping his side win the French title last season, though he’s yet to find his top form this season.
In 10 appearance so far for Monaco this season, he has been able to score just one goal, but has provided 3 assists for his teammates.
The Mirror also added that the 21-year-old is confident that he can command a massive deal that will see him earn £250,000 each week.
But, can Liverpool afford that?
