5 potential creative targets for Liverpool

#3 Riyad Mahrez (Leicester City)

Riyad Mahrez is wanted at Anfield especially by the Liverpool fans

The Algerian attacker is a player that Liverpool will know well from playing in the Premier League and what quality he could bring to the team.

The role of Mahrez would be the biggest problem Liverpool would face should they make a last-ditch attempt to lure him to Anfield. Mahrez is at his most effective in the role that Mohammed Salah has thrived in this season, so really would Mahrez really be a back-up to Salah or could they integrate the player in a different role to an attacking quartet?

The money needed to get Mahrez would not be an issue for Liverpool, but does he have the sufficient quality too really improve this Liverpool team? The former PFA Player of the year has been in great form this season showcasing to potential suitors just how good he is.

A move away this January looks highly unlikely at this stage but with Tottenham looking to add to their squad, Liverpool could and should be trying to lure Mahrez to Anfield.
