Julian Ward wants to sign record breaking attacker for Liverpool

Liverpool have been interested in a number of players to bolster their attacking lineup over recent years, with some transfers ultimately completed and others falling through. For instance, Yan Diomande was a principal target during the summer window, but he ultimately transferred to Real Madrid. Liverpool subsequently settled for Bradley Barcola, who has proven to be a quality acquisition, even surpassing the Ivorian in performance.

Despite signing Barcola and Victor Munoz, Liverpool still requires additional attacking firepower, particularly with key players Hugo Ekitike and Alexander Isak sidelined by injury. As a result, the club remains in the market for new talent, having spent over £150 million on two new forwards in the summer transfer window. Now, according to a recent report from Hooligan Soccer, Villarreal's promising 23-year-old winger, Alberto Moleiro, has emerged as another prospective signing for the Reds.

The forward, who is on track to match or surpass his 16-goal tally from last season across all competitions, has garnered interest from Premier League clubs including Arsenal, Manchester City, and Borussia Dortmund. While no formal transfer discussions have taken place yet, Liverpool, along with the other interested parties, are closely monitoring Moleiro's contract situation and conducting thorough evaluations.

Despite Villarreal's reluctance to part with their prized asset, who signed from Las Palmas for a club-record fee of $17.9 million plus $2.25 million in add-ons in July 2025, Liverpool remains hopeful of securing a deal for this talented winger ahead of the January transfer window.
