It wouldn’t be transfer deadline day if Liverpool weren’t linked to any new players and while this is clearly not an option for the current window, this latest man seems to be attracting other Premier League clubs as well. .
As reported by Mike McGrath of The Daily Telegraph: ‘LASK striker Keito Nakamura is the subject of offers from FC Augsburg and Reims, but the Japanese player will stay with the Austrian Bundesliga club for the season. Liverpool and Brighton have sent scouts to observe his season (8 goals + 3 assists / 15 apps) and will monitor him.’
Keito Nakamura is someone who plays in a position we’re not exactly lacking at the moment, a left winger and another attacking option, which means many will immediately be hesitant about any possible link.

With 11 goals and six assists in 18 appearances in all competitions for LASK this season, the Japanese striker has set the Austrian Bundesliga on fire and looks destined to follow in the footsteps of Erling Haaland and Takumi Minamino by leaving the country for the Premier League.
If there’s one thing the Reds could probably benefit from right now, it’s following Brighton’s recruiting team, with the Seagulls finding star after star of late and doing it for such an affordable price.
It’s probably a name that won’t get anywhere, but it seems to be a touch different from our normal transfer ideas and with a likely busy summer, perhaps we could pick up a couple of younger players, while also hoping to see some of marquee. arrivals too.
