Liverpool are looking to sign Borussia Dortmund star Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, according to Le10Sport.
A former player of Jurgen Klopp, Aubameyang has also been linked by the French outlet with a move to Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain, as well as Liverpool.
Le10Sport claim that Liverpool are the new favourites to sign Aubameyang, with Klopp playing a big part in that.
The Gabonese striker has scored 42 goals in 75 games for Dortmund since joining from St. Etienne in 2013. Those include the two hat-tricks Aubameyang scored in three days last week.
The Borussia Dortmund Sporting Director, Michael Zorc, has commented on the speculation by explaining Dortmund’s plans with the player:
Here, contracts don’t change. We are planning with him in the long term.
Although Zorc has brushed off these rumours, Aubameyang would certainly be a massive signing for Liverpool and the Reds will hope that the striker’s experience of playing under Klopp might persuade him to move to Anfield.
The Merseysiders have struggled for goals this term and one of their main threats up front, Danny Ings, is out for the season due to an ACL injury.
