It has become apparent over the course of the last few months of the season that Darwin Nunez does not have a long-term future left at Anfield.

Liverpool need to go in a different direction and while the priority is still to sell Nunez first, there are plenty of opportunities in the market.

Even with the likes of Joao Pedro and Liam Delap going to Chelsea, or Viktor Gyokeres signing for Arsenal, Liverpool have a number of forward options to choose from, and they may even need to add two attackers if Luis Diaz opts to leave, which is why they could sign someone on the cheap.

Someone who is a proven goal-scorer and who is now available.

The reality is even though Liverpool are in a good position when it comes to the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR), they still need to operate carefully.

This is what Liverpool have always done, especially in the Michael Edwards era. The Reds do not often take risks in the market. They will bide their time, and they will exploit opportunities that become available.

That's why Federico Chiesa was signed from Juventus last summer and that's why the Reds could now move for one of his former teammates.

Dusan Vlahovic is apparently set to become available as a free agent if a recent report from Italy is to be believed.

According to Di Marzio, Juventus will propose to terminate Vlahovic's contract in the coming days as they are scheduled to meet with his representatives.

The Serbian arrived for a huge transfer fee which was €83.5m, around £72m at the time as per Fansided.

Since then, Vlahovic has been a consistent player for Juventus scoring 58 goals, including 33 goal contributions in the Serie A during his last two seasons.

However, his high wages appear to be a problem for the club, and it is believed Juventus do not feel they are getting value for money for him.

That's why the Italian giants want to part ways with Vlahovic. But while this is not value for money for Juventus, this could be an opportunity for Liverpool.

After all, this is a striker who has proven himself at the very highest level and he's still only 25-years-old. Vlahovic on a free transfer with reduced wages at Liverpool could be an astute back-up option to give Slot a new dimension in attack.
