Liverpool are said to be considering a move for Borussia Dortmund forward Karim Adeyemi as they look to replace Mohamed Salah at the end of the season.

Karim Adeyemi has enjoyed a blistering start to the season with five goals and five assists to his name in just eight appearances across all competitions. While he is currently sidelined with a muscle injury, the 22 year old is attracting the interest of Liverpool.

It is being reported by Sky Sport that Adeyemi is one of the candidates Liverpool are discussing and monitoring as they look to replace Mohamed Salah, who is increasingly likely to leave the club at the end of the season.

Another player on Liverpool's list of targets is Omar Marmoush of Eintracht Frankfurt, who has also enjoyed a stunning start to the season and scored a brace against Bayern Munich this past weekend. The Eagles are keen to keep Marmoush at the club and will look to extend his contract to fend off interest from other clubs. The report adds that Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest wanted to sign him this past summer.

It remains to be seen whether Adeyemi would have interest in a move to Liverpool. He was heavily linked with the likes of Chelsea and Juventus this past summer, but Borussia Dortmund were adamant not to sell him.

Adeyemi said recently that he is happy at Borussia Dortmund and is not considering a move away from the club at the moment. He still has three years left on his current contract with the Black and Yellows.
