Liverpool eye another African star to Join Mane and Salah at Anfield

Liverpool are eying a move for Nigeria international winger Moses Simon.

The 22-year-old is on the Reds radar as they continue their recruitment drive this summer with Jurgen Klopp keen to bolster his attacking options.

Simon, who has been tracked by several Premier League clubs, has a year left remaining on his contract and is expected to command a fee of around £10million from Belgian side Gent.

He has been heavily scouted by Liverpool as they seek pacy backup to regular wide man Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.

Simon is capable of playing on either flank but spent much of this season on the left wing, where he contributed six goals and three assists in helping Gent finish in fourth in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League.

The youngster was recently left out the Nigerian world cup squad because of an injury.
