Liverpool have identified Algerian international Mohamed Amine Amoura as a prime transfer target, with the club’s scouting department reportedly relying on advanced data analytics to assess his potential impact.
The 24-year-old Wolfsburg forward has drawn serious interest from the Reds, with reports from Anfield Index suggesting that Liverpool’s recruitment team, spearheaded by Michael Edwards and Julian Ward, views him as a key target for the upcoming transfer window.
The club’s scouting approach is heavily influenced by the ‘Moneyball’ methodology, a data-driven model that has previously helped Liverpool discover standout talents such as Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mané, and Andrew Robertson.
The ‘Moneyball’ strategy involves analyzing vast amounts of statistical data to pinpoint players who best fit Liverpool’s tactical and performance requirements.
Amoura’s performances in the Bundesliga have placed him firmly on the club’s radar. His technical ability, speed, and finishing prowess have made him a crucial figure for Wolfsburg this season.
In 24 league appearances, he has registered 10 goals and provided 8 assists, ranking him among the Bundesliga’s top creators.
With several European clubs also monitoring his situation, Liverpool appear determined to move ahead in the race for his signature.
However, Wolfsburg’s stance on a potential transfer remains uncertain, with the German side likely to demand a significant fee for their in-form forward.
As the summer window approaches, negotiations could intensify, with Liverpool eager to reinforce their attacking options and secure one of the Bundesliga’s rising stars.
