Liverpool and Aston Villa are the front-runners to sign Milot Rashica this summer, according to Gazeta Blic, via the Mirror.
The Kosovan has shone for Werder Bremen this season, scoring seven goals and registering four assists in the Bundesliga.
The German side are demanding £35 million for Rashica’s services, with Liverpool contemplating a bid.
Read Liverpool Verdict
Liverpool could definitely do with more attacking depth out wide, especially with Xherdan Shaqiri potentially moving on this summer.
Too often, the onus is on Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane to stay fit and deliver the goods, with not enough consistent quality coming from the bench.
I think Rashica has the end product, pace and trickery to be an effective addition, easing the workload on Salah and Mane. He has averaged 2.2 dribbles per game in the league this season, which is more than any Liverpool player. Mane (1.9) and Salah (1.7) come out on top for the Reds.
While £35 million is not necessarily cheap for a back-up option, the money generated from selling Shaqiri, and potentially Divock Origi, could make it a worthwhile amount to pay.
