Liverpool's forward line is facing uncertainty with Chiesa and Nunez linked away and Salah's contract expiring. This has led to speculation about potential new signings, including Liam Delap from Ipswich Town.
With Federico Chiesa and Darwin Nunez both linked with moves away from Liverpool , and Mohamed Salah currently out of contract at the end of the season, it would not be a surprise if the Reds found themselves in the market for a new forward in 2025.
Arne Slot's side are being linked with potential reinforcements themselves, with the summer arrival of the Italian partly a result of the Dutchman being keen on possessing six forwards in his senior squad and having two quality options for each outfield position. With Nunez struggling for form, Diogo Jota only just back from a two-month injury lay-off, and Cody Gakpo shining on the left, Luis Diaz has been reinvented down the middle.

Following Jota’s return from injury, Slot would insist that Diaz would still be considered as a striker option, with the forward responding with three goals from his last two games. Nunez has seemingly dropped down the pecking order as a result, leading to both reports linking him with a move away and speculation surrounding Liverpool and potential new forwards. The Daily Mail reported last weekend that the Reds are one of the clubs interested in signing former Man City striker Liam Delap from Ipswich Town. The 21-year-old has impressed for the struggling Tractor Boys since joining them in a £20m deal last summer, returning seven goals from 18 Premier League appearances. This has prompted speculation about his future, with Chelsea, Manchester United and Man City, along with Liverpool, all said to be interested in the England Under-21s international. While Pep Guardiola’s side inserted a buyback clause in the deal that took the striker to Portman Road, his contract is also believed to contain a release clause for other suitor
