After a summer of heavy spending and smart planning, Liverpool are still not done in the transfer window.

That’s where the search begins — and Sky Germany reports Liverpool have narrowed it down to three firm names: Hugo Ekitike, Alexander Isak, and Victor Osimhen.

Transfer expert Florian Plettenberg reports, “Liverpool are currently focusing on three concrete options in their search for a new number 9: Hugo Ekitike, Alexander Isak, and Victor Osimhen.”

Each target brings something different to the table — and each comes with their own challenges.

The 23-year-old Frenchman impressed at Eintracht Frankfurt and knows a move to Liverpool would be a step up.

But he’s also been told to wait, with Liverpool needing to raise funds first.

Newcastle don’t want to sell, but Isak reportedly sees Liverpool as an attractive next step.

But with Lukaku now at Napoli and no other strong Premier League bids, Liverpool might sneak in late — if the numbers make sense.
