It's not Thuram, nor Kolo Muani: the unusual name Liverpool are trying to sign for their attack

Liverpool have set their sights on Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo as they look to strengthen their attacking options. The Reds are keen to add more firepower to their squad and believe the Cameroonian international fits the profile of player they are looking for.

New Liverpool manager, Arne Slot, is a big admirer of Mbeumo and has personally requested the club to pursue a deal for the 25-year-old. The Dutch coach is impressed with Mbeumo's versatility, pace, and ability to create chances.

Mbeumo has been in impressive form for Brentford this season, scoring 10 goals and providing 5 assists. His performances have attracted the attention of several top European clubs, but Liverpool are believed to be leading the race for his signature.
