Goals Machine in Belgium Paul Onuachu has continued to attract all sorts of attention on the back of his run of 22 goals in the Jupiler Pro League with his club’s sports director saying that Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was alerted about the giant striker as early as last year.
“In the Champions League he played strong against Liverpool last year, who have a fantastic defence. That was his reference game, even Jürgen Klopp said afterwards that they were having a hard time with Paul,” Dimitri De Condé told HLN.
The Genk sports director further said he expects a big scramble by some of Europe’s top clubs for Onuachu in the summer.
“He’s 27. He’s a top scorer. It’s not a goal in itself to sell him on. But if he continues to perform like this … Of course, we will do everything we can to keep him. But there will be a lot of interest”, said De Condé.
“Paul Onuachu will score everywhere. Also in the Premier League. He will even be on the list of top clubs, provided that they shop for his type of striker to complement their squad.”
