Liverpool looking to add to striking department

Liverpool have been hunting to find an addiction to strengthen up their striking department in their bid to forget the poor start in the league and to push up the table towards a Europa league qualification place.

The Red’s scout have been in Germany and are currently looking at Hamburg’s South Korean forward Son Heung-min.

The young South Korean age 20 has started well for Hamburg scoring 4 goals in 7 appearances for the Bundesliga club. Heung-min can play as a centre forward or on the wing.

The young forward has also recently broken into the national team having made 9 appearances for his country. He scored his first international goal in the 2011 Asian Cup in a 4-1 win against India.

This young prospect has had plenty of praise from Ex German players such as Franz Beckenbauer who said Son has the potential to be the next Cha Bum-Kun who was a South Korean footballer in the 70’s and 80’s who scored 98 goals in German club football.

There is no doubt Liverpool need another striker as they rely heavily on Luis Suarez after Andy Carroll was released on loan to West Ham and Fabio Borini is now injured and potentially faces a lengthy abesent from the game.
