Liverpool considering swoop for Jamaican attacker

Liverpool are one of several English sides with an eye on young Jamaican attacker Alex Marshall, according to TalkSport.

Marshall, 20, has been dubbed the next Raheem Sterling due to similarities in their style of play, and has already played a number of games for Jamaica, ensuring that he can’t be snapped up by another country as Sterling was.

The pacey attacker has eight league goals in 33 appearances for Cavalier in Jamaica’s top tier since the start of last season, and would represent a genuinely-good prospect for any club.

It remains to be seen whether or not the Reds will move for the youngster over the coming transfer windows.
