Liverpool are reportedly monitoring the progress of 19-year-old Gent winger Momodou Sanko, who has been likened to Arsenal and England star Bukayo Saka.

Liverpool are reportedly interested in signing Gent attacker Momodou Sonko in the near future.

The 19-year-old was linked to the Anfield club at the beginning of the calendar year, when legendary coach Jurgen Klopp was still in charge on Merseyside.

Since then, Liverpool have moved onto a new era under Arne Slot, with the Dutchman helping the club to a sensational start to the Premier League campaign.

The Reds are currently nine points ahead of second-placed Arsenal in the top-flight title race following a 2-0 victory over Manchester City on Sunday afternoon.

Cody Gakpo opened the scoring for Liverpool in the first period at Anfield, before Mohamed Salah held his nerve from 12 yards to secure maximum points in the second half.

Liverpool plotting move for Gent star Sonko?

According to Football Insider, Liverpool are continuing to target improvements for their attacking line despite a brilliant opening to the campaign.

The report claims that the Reds are keen on securing the services of Gent winger Sonko, who has made waves in Swedish and Belgian football in recent years.

It is understood that Liverpool view Sonko as a player who could develop into a first-team regular, opposed to an immediate impact-maker on his potential arrival.

As a result, it is believed that Slot's side are also targeting the acquisition of a box-office signing for their front three in the near future.

Since switching from Hacken to Gent in January, Sonko has made 24 first-team appearances for the Belgian Pro League side, scoring two goals.

Salah's replacement is the next Saka?

A left-footed winger on the right, Sonko has been likened to Arsenal and England star Saka during the opening stages of the 19-year-old's professional career.

That being said, it is safe to say that the young Swede is nowhere near the levels of the Gunners man yet, meaning that Liverpool supporters would need to be patient.

Slot's men are on the lookout for solutions on the flanks, especially considering that Salah's current deal expires at the end of the campaign. body check tags ::
