Liverpool are set to begin work on a long term transfer target in the coming weeks and months.

The Reds are emerging as one of five Premier League clubs interested in an Eredivisie forward.

Per Football Insider, they are among many teams that hold an interest in PSV Eindhoven forward Johan Bakayoko.

The attacker is one who was linked to the Reds in August, but no move materialized.

He may be a future prospect who the club sees as a replacement for Mohamed Salah in the long-term.

Al-Ittihad in Saudi Arabia are turning on the charm offensive to bring Salah to their league in the coming months.
