As Jurgen Klopp tries to concoct plans for the upcoming Premier League season, Liverpool are reportedly monitoring West Ham winger Jarrod Bowen.Liverpool lost their Premier League crown to Manchester City last season, partially due to a combination of a blunt attack and a leaky defence, and German manager is eager to retake the Premier League trophy from Pep Guardiola & Co.Defensive part of transfer activity is sort of covered as the Reds already recruited Ibrahima Konate from RB Leipzig in a 50 million USD deal. Focus is now on the attacking portion and the clock is ticking as their opening day game is on August 14 against Premier League returnees Norwich City.The 24-year-old Hammers winger has emerged as a target for the Reds, with the Englishman understood to feature on a list of attacking options this summer, according to The Athletic.##EDITORS_CHOICE##However, it all depends on whether Liverpool can offload the likes of Xherdan Shaqiri and Divock Origi in this window. The Anfield club’s options in front could be changing significantly.Especially since Diogo Jota’s arrival, both Origi and Shaqiri have fallen down the pecking order and the club are reportedly more than fine with selling the duo.Bowen helped David Moyes guide West Ham to a sixth place finish last season and has generally impressed since joining The Hammers from Hull City in an 24.5 million USD deal in January 2020.The East London club are in a strong position with Bowen’s contract running until 2025 and if he stays at London Stadium and continues giving good numbers (scored eight goals and provided five assists) – West Ham have nothing to worry about at that right attacking flank.Klopp, the report states, is a huge admirer of the Englishman and Bowen is believed to fit Liverpool’s profile of attacking targets in terms of playing style, age and versatility across the forward positions.Lazio are understood to be interested in Shaqiri while Scottish Old Firm rivals Glasgow and Celtic, and West Ham also, are eyeing Origi.
