A number of Liverpool supporters are desperate for the Reds to sign Red Bull Salzburg youngster Karim Adeyemi, following an update regarding his future.
Jurgen Klopp may have only signed Ibrahima Konate in the summer transfer window, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t always looking to improve his squad.
This is a group of players who are slowly reaching their twilight years, with the likes Virgil van Dijk, Jordan Henderson and Thiago now in their 30s and Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino all close to their 20s coming to an end.

For that reason, it is important Liverpool build towards the future at some point, and according to Bild [via LFC Transfer Room on Twitter], the Reds are interested in signing 19 year-old Adeyemi.
Bayern Munich and Barcelona are also thought to be interested in the striker, who has scored 17 goals and chipped in with 16 assists in 59 appearances for Salzburg.
