Liverpool fans may be pining for a direct replacement for Sadio Mane out wide after the Senegalese star departed for Bayern Munich on Wednesday afternoon.

Liverpool have previously already looked at a direct replacement in the form of Jeremy Doku - who has dropped a huge hint that he is destined for the Premier League in the not-so-distant future.



Liverpool have been one of the clubs linked in the past given that Doku visited the club's facilities as a 15-year-old, with his energetic, pacy style fitting into the profile of player Jurgen Klopp likes in an attacker.



With the prodigy admitting he would like a move to the Premier League in the past, Liverpool may have already found their successor to Mane's throne.



"I want to do everything to become one of the best players in the world, at one of the biggest clubs in the world, in the English Premier League if possible. And I am working hard for that," Doku told RTBF. Doku could be the heir to the throne of the Senegal hero given he too seems to have an energetic, high-tempo style.

If the record books are anything to go by, Doku could be a target having reportedly visited Melwood back in 2018 as a 15-year-old wonderkid, according to Het Nieuwsblad. David, Doku's father, told the same newspaper back then: "My preference was Liverpool. How we were received there, damn. Klopp explained how he saw a potential successor to Sadio Mane in Jeremy."

Perhaps Doku could be in Liverpool's plans if he is indeed Premier League bound.
