Liverpool FC closing in on top Ligue 1 striker
Footybunker.com have been led to believe that Liverpool are closing in on Ligue 1 striker and Argentine international Lisandro Lopez with the possibility of the forward joining by the end of next weekend.
The 28 year old forward currently plays for Lyon and knocked in an incredible 32 league goals in 60 appearances since joining the French side in 2009. The former Porto player, should he join Liverpool, will be swapping the chance to play in the Champions League by trying to help the Anfield side into the top four of the Premiership, although at the time of writing Lyon have not yet qualified for the group stages.
Liverpool have been coy regarding their transfer dealings but still look to be seeking a central defender plus another striker to provide back up for Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez. Lisandro Lopez could cost the Liverpool side anything from £15m which for a player who could still have another four years of goal scoring service may seem to be good business at this time.
