Liverpool have been one of the busiest Premier League clubs in the ongoing transfer window. Since their loss to Real Madrid in the Champions League final, Jurgen Klopp seems determined to make some changes.  The Reds have already completed the signing of Fabinho but have also been linked with a move for Lyon captain Nabil Fekir.

There have been all kinds of speculation about the player’s imminent move to Anfield. However, Lyon have confirmed that the player will stay in France next season.

Klopp should now take a look at other alternatives who could come in and play a similar role. Since the deal has now failed, here are three other players the German could sign.

Julian Draxler

Since the arrivals of Neymar and Kylian Mbappe last year, the German international has found regular football hard to come by. He made just 19 appearances for PSG last season, scoring 4 goals and providing 5 assists in the process.

The German attacking midfielder possesses a number of qualities that could truly help strengthen Liverpool’s overall performances. He’s great on the ball with exceptional passing abilities. In addition to that, Draxler is a set-piece specialist.

The player would flourish behind an attack that consists of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohammed Salah. In fact, he would be the perfect alternative to Nabil Fekir.

Xherdan Shaqiri

Stoke have now been relegated to the Championship, meaning Xherdan Shaqiri could be on the lookout for a potential exit. The Swiss attacker might not be a big name when compared to the likes of Julian Draxler and Nabil Fekir, but he would certainly fit the profile.

Shaqiri enjoyed his best campaign with the Potters last season, as he scored 8 goals and provided 7 assists. He’s quick on his feet and his set-piece abilities are quite impressive as well. Hence, given the requirement at Liverpool, Shaqiri would certainly be a great addition.

Malcom

The Bordeaux attacker had a breakthrough campaign last term in the Ligue 1, making 31 appearances for the French club. He scored 12 goals and provided 7 assists in that time, making a name for himself across Europe. He is one of the hottest prospects in football right now and at the age of 21, he could be a great long-term option.

Malcom is a great dribbler of the ball with exceptional long-range shooting abilities. The Brazilian could make an instant impact at Anfield and Klopp should consider him as a realistic option.
