Signing £30m Belgian would be a huge mistake for Liverpool

Following a disastrous campaign this year, Liverpool have been linked with moves for several strikers across Europe. Having scored more than a 100 goals last season, the Reds have been toothless upfront, due to the recurring injuries to Daniel Sturridge and the departure of Luis Suarez.

Time and again this season, the Reds have failed to convert their chances. Turning defeats into draws and draws into wins was a key feature under Brendan Rodgers last season.

However, the lack of a clinical presence upfront has been Liverpool’s undoing this season.

According to reports in the English media, Liverpool are keen to add to their attack with the 30m signing of Christian Benteke.
