Liverpool are reportedly eyeing a surprise move for a forward whom Manchester United offloaded in the summer of 2024.

Liverpool are keeping an eye on a forward whose potential signing might not sit well with their fans due to his controversial history.

Currently leading the Premier League comfortably, the Reds are strong favorites to secure the title this season. They are also among the top contenders for the Champions League after topping their group in the earlier stage of the competition.

Arne Slot’s debut season as manager has been impressive, especially considering the club has achieved success without major squad reinforcements. In fact, the only signing made during Slot’s tenure across two transfer windows has been Italian winger Federico Chiesa.

Despite this, Liverpool are looking to strengthen their squad in the summer to address key concerns.

According to Fichajes, the club is among those interested in signing former Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood, who currently plays for Marseille in Ligue 1. Greenwood was sold by United last summer following off-field controversies.

This season, the English forward has been in fine form, netting 14 goals and providing three assists in 23 league matches. His versatility across all attacking positions makes him an appealing option for Slot.

However, Greenwood’s controversial past could make the move unpopular among Liverpool fans, potentially complicating the transfer.

In addition to Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, and Juventus are also monitoring the attacker’s situation.

With concerns over Darwin Núñez’s inconsistency and Diogo Jota’s injury struggles, Liverpool are expected to bring in a new forward in the summer transfer window.
