5 attacking midfielders Liverpool should target in the January transfer window

Manchester City v Olympique Lyonnais - UEFA Champions League Group F
Liverpool nearly signed Nabil Fekir in the summer transfer window.

#2 Hakim Ziyech

Ajax v Emmen - Eredivisie
Hakim Ziyech is among the best Eredivisie players.

The Moroccan international is among the best players in the Eredivisie and won the Dutch Footballer of the Year award for his performances last season.

Ajax's attacker is an accomplished dribbler like Phillipe Coutinho and is also capable of breaking the opponent's defence with his clever passes. The 25-year-old's eye for goal will loosen the goal-scoring burden on Liverpool's front-three.

He scored nine goals last season and created whopping 17 goals for his teammates. Ziyech started strong this season as well and already registered three goals and five assists in seven league games. The former Twente player provided the most number of assists in three out of the last four Eredivisie seasons.

The Merseysiders were linked with Ziyech in the past and it won't come as a surprise to the Reds' fans if Jurgen Klopp tries again to sign the playmaker in January after his team's recent midfield performances.
