Exclusive: Liverpool monitoring Borussia Monchengladbach winger Liverpool are eyeing up big changes on the wings in the upcoming transfer window. Last year the Premier League champions spent £450m on new signings. The attack got a major refit - with Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike and Alexander Isak all coming on board.
This year is different however with Arne Slot and Richard Hughes prioritising improvements out wide instead of the centre of the attack. It’s been confirmed that Mohamed Salah is leaving Anfield after reaching an agreement to tear up his £400k per week contract a year early. And Federico Chiesa - his understudy at right-wing - is very likely to join Salah on the exit ramp amid interest from Italy.
With Jeremie Frimpong unconvincing in his outings thus far - and struggling to stay fit on a consistent basis - right-wing is now emerging as an area to be worked on. We’ve seen big-name players like Yan Diomande and Bradley Barcola mentioned as potential Liverpool acquisitions. Liverpool monitoring Franck Honorat Anfield Watch can now reveal there is another name on the list - Borussia Monchengladbach winger Franck Honorat.
Liverpool are monitoring the Frenchman and have even sent staff to watch the winger in person. Honorat, 29, is a very different profile to Salah - who is of course a left-footed attacker prone to coming inside for shots at goal or through balls. Honorat on the other hand is a right-footer who likes to get down the outside and put crosses into the box.
