"Liverpool are still looking to bring in another attacker this summer with a starlet compared to Roberto Firmino emerging as a solution. The Reds have won their opening two fixtures in their defence of the Premier League crown but not without drama, as manager Arne Slot has seen his team fall two goals behind twice in two weeks before relying on substitutes to change the game."
"This summer, there has been a conscious effort by the Merseysiders to embrace younger talent, and not just in the opportunities afforded to 16-year-old Rio Ngumoha Milos Kerkez, Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike are 21, 22 and 23 respectively, as Slot looks to build an all-conquering team of the future. And with one particular teenager likened to the legendary Roberto Firmino, it appears that Liverpool's commitment to youth is stronger than ever."
Liverpool continue to pursue another attacker this summer, viewing added attacking depth as crucial for four-competition demands. The Reds have won their opening two Premier League fixtures but twice trailed by two goals before substitutes changed matches, underlining the need for reinforcements. Manager Arne Slot is integrating younger talent, promoting 16-year-old Rio Ngumoha and targeting players such as Milos Kerkez, Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike. Portuguese outlet A Bola linked Liverpool with Fluminense teenager Isaque, a creative no.10 compared to Roberto Firmino, but Globo Esporte report Isaque agreed a move to Shakhtar Donetsk for just over €10 million, with Fluminense holding a 10% sell-on.
