Nigeria-eligible forward on the wishlist of Liverpool

Bournemouth forward Arnaut Danjuma is a surprise target for Liverpool. With the likely exit of Sadio Mane and Mohammed Salah to represent their national teams in the African Cup of Nations in January, the Reds are planning for life without their top hitmen.

However, Liverpool are not the only club interested in securing the services of the former Club Brugge man as Reports from Marca indicate that Villareal are favourites to sign the 24-year-old.

The Yellow Submarines have already submitted a £12.8m bid, which Bournemouth rejected as they are holding out for their £21m valuation of their star man.

Danjuma’s 15 goals in 33 Championship appearances last season attracted a lot of attention, and The Express also reports that German side Wolfsburg are monitoring the situation.

The versatile attacker fits the Liverpool profile perfectly as he can play from all positions in attack.

The Lagos born Player has featured for Netherland at the youth level and has two caps for the Oranje, but due to FIFA rules, he can still represent Nigeria.
