Liverpool want generational playmaker, he could be coming to replace Florian Wirtz
Liverpool are reportedly interested in signing an exciting playmaker who could replace Florian Wirtz.
A rebuild is always going to have teething problems. That's what Liverpool are going through at the moment. There are numerous little areas of concern in the squad that the club's new sporting director Julian Ward is going to have to address.
Under these circumstances, while balancing an imperfect squad, Andoni Iraola has done a stellar job at Anfield.
The Spaniard has come in, embraced the culture of Liverpool and imbued his tactical style and philosophy very quickly into the core of the Reds.
It's a style that, conversely to Arne Slot's, is entertaining and has made Anfield exciting to attend for fans looking to express their love for the club.
Andoni Iraola's biggest task at Liverpool
Iraola's first mission was to restore that entertainment factor to the way Liverpool play. As a club, you have to attract the fans. People need to be watching both in the stands and on television screens.
That is simply how you're going to generate revenue and attract the best players on the planet.
But beyond the first problem, Iraola's biggest task at Anfield now remains solving the Florian Wirtz mystery.
The German has been a real conundrum for both Slot and Iraola. It's hard to figure out what is going wrong for a player for whom Liverpool invested so much money on.
Wirtz has some flashes of brilliance, but he is nowhere near the player Liverpool thought they had signed. Iraola is going to have to get the best out of him. Otherwise, it will continue to feel like Liverpool aren't playing the best football they possibly could be playing.
Liverpool lining up move to replace Wirtz with Wael Mohya
Obviously, Ward has a choice and a big say in the matter, too. Liverpool could easily part ways with Wirtz. The German is still young, and he has resale value.
Back in his homeland, someone like Bayern Munich would absolutely love to have him. They wanted him desperately before he chose to join Liverpool.
Right now, if Wirtz's struggles continue you simply cannot rule out that possibility. Especially when Liverpool are eyeing playmakers like Wael Mohya who could easily replace Wirtz.
According to Ekrem Kunor, Liverpool are one of the club's interested in the Borussia Mochengladbach playmaker who is only 17-years-old but already has three goal contributions in the Bundesliga this season.
Blessed with a lot of flair, Mohya looks like a generational player and someone who might just be a bit more suited to playing in the Premier League.
It's why this is a move to keep a close eye on.
