Liverpool’s struggles in front of goal have been well documented, and with their current forwards failing to consistently hit the net, a transfer for a frontman seems inevitable. Enter Ollie Watkins, Aston Villa’s striker, who’s been tearing up the Premier League seasons after seasons.
Watkins’ record of 23 goals and 13 assists across all competitions in 23/24 speaks for itself. He’s a clinical finisher with a knack for creating chances, exactly what Liverpool needs.
At $65 million, Watkins wouldn’t come cheap, but his age, talent, and Premier League experience make him a valuable asset.
While Watkins has previously expressed his dream of playing for Arsenal, could the allure of Liverpool and Champions League football be too strong to resist?
Only time will tell if Watkins ends up at Anfield, but one thing’s for sure: he has the potential to be the missing piece in Liverpool’s attacking puzzle.
