Liverpool ready to firm up interest in Paris FC striker Wamangituka

Liverpool are reportedly ready to step up their long-term interest in Paris FC striker Silas Wamangituka with a concrete offer.

According to Portuguese outlet Jornal de Noticias, cited by the Independent, the Reds are now ready to make an offer for the 19-year-old, with Barcelona, Braga and Marseille all now interested in the forward.

The teenager struck 11 times in 32 Ligue 2 matches for his current side last season, helping them to a playoff position.

Wamangituka is regarded as a future star by many in France, with Liverpool sending scouts to watch the player in action in recent months.

And it appears as if the Reds will now make a formal offer for the player this summer following the interest in Spain, Portugal and France.

If Liverpool are successful in their pursuit of Wamangituka, Jurgen Klopp may decide to initially loan the teenager out in order to allow the striker to continue playing regular first-team football.
