Liverpool track Alexander Meier

Liverpool have sent club representatives to track Bundesliga sharp shooter Alexander Meier.
The Eintracht Frankfurt forward has been on impressive form this season and is seen by Anfield staff as a perfect squad partner for Luis Suarez.


Although not fitting typically into the Fenway model, the 29 year old striker, is seen as the perfect compliment to Brendan Rodgers young side.  Summer target Clint Dempsey eventually went to Spurs after negotiations broke down between Liverpool and Fulham, Meier is viewed as an on par replacement for that missed opportunity.

Meier will want convincing he would not be just a bit part player in Liverpool's system, the further injury to Fabio Borini means Liverpool have to look at differing striking options in the coming window.

Rodgers is keen on Meier and believes his talent would easily translate to the Premier League, Meier currently sits on pole as the Bundesliga's top scorer with 9 goals this season.
