There is plenty of intrigue surrounding who Liverpool will target in the summer transfer window.
With Michael Edwards back overseeing things and highly-rated sporting director Richard Hughes set to join him, there is an expectation that Liverpool will do some good business once again.
Slowly, news is filtering out about what positions the pair will look to upgrade in the Liverpool squad.
And engaging in a Q&A with the outlet’s readers on Friday, Ornstein suggested one of the names who could be on Liverpool’s list.

As we know from Edwards’ previous stint at Liverpool, it’s unwise to try and predict too much of what he’ll plan in the transfer market.
Reds’ supporters have become rather used to expecting the unexpected with the data guru pulling the strings.
And according to Ornstein, one on Liverpool’s ‘radar’ is likely to be West Ham United’s Mohammed Kudus.

“From what I hear a wide forward is among the areas Liverpool are exploring heading into the summer window,” explains the journalist when asked about the Reds’ possible interest in Kudus.
“I don’t know if Kudus is an option but he is a brilliant player,” he adds.
I don’t know the details but Kudus is not alone in having such a mechanism in his contract; Paqueta and other West Ham players do, too.
West Ham will of course want to keep Kudus and build with him.”
After joining West Ham for around £38m last summer, Kudus has been a big hit at the London Stadium.
For a while last year it had looked as though the Ghanaian might be on his way to Anfield.
As Ornstein says, Liverpool should be aware of him.
