Liverpool scouts Paul Wanner as potential target for midfield creativity
Summary

Liverpool is evaluating PSV midfielder Paul Wanner as a potential addition to the club’s attacking options. The 20-year-old has played 39 matches for the Eredivisie club since transferring from Bayern Munich last summer. While Liverpool has not submitted an official offer, the club is monitoring his performance alongside other European teams, including Real Madrid and Manchester City. Wanner is recognized for his versatility, having played across the midfield and as a forward, and his development under Peter Bosz has drawn comparisons to Florian Wirtz. Liverpool currently utilizes Dominik Szoboszlai and Harvey Elliott in creative roles, but club scouts are assessing whether Wanner could provide additional mobility and scoring threat in future transfer windows.
