Nottingham Forest manager Sabri Lamouchi will already be planning for the January transfer window, with a striker likely to be high on his list of priorities.
It wouldn’t be a surprise to see Evangelos Marinakis back the Frenchman in January.
One player who might have caught the attention of the Reds is Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster.
According to the Daily Mail, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is happy for the talented striker to leave Anfield on loan. This is already attracting the attention of both Premier League and Championships clubs.
Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Leeds United and Swansea City are all said to have joined the race to sign the 19-year-old on loan.
Brewster isn’t likely to feature much in the first-team in the second-half of the season. He has just three hours of first-team football to his name this season in the Carabao Cup.
It wouldn’t be a surprise if the Reds were tempted to join the race.
Potential
There’s no doubt that Sabri Lamouchi needs some firepower adding to his squad.
Lamouchi currently only has Lewis Grabban and Rafa Mir at his disposal. However, it wouldn’t be a surprise if Mir returned to Wolverhampton Wanderers in January. His season-long loan move hasn’t worked out so far.
Therefore, adding a striker to his squad is almost a necessity.
It’s clear that Brewster has something about him, and he’d add something different to the squad. He may lack experience, but he makes up for that in youthful energy and dynamism.
The Reds may regret not making a move if he joined another Championship side.
