Liverpool Transfers: 10 World Class Players To Buy With Suarez Money

10. Mario Mandzukic

Christophe Ena/AP/Press Association ImagesChristophe Ena/AP/Press Association ImagesOne of the first orders of protocol for Liverpool this summer in the aftermath of Luis Suarez's apparently inevitable move to Barcelona is to sign another striker. Daniel Sturridge is improving all the time and arguably had his best season as a Red in 2013-14, while Fabio Borini is returning following a successful loan spell at Sunderland - but the Anfield giants still need another forward. Brendan Rodgers could turn to Bayern Munich's out-of-favour Mario Mandzukic, who wants out of the Allianz Arena this summer after growing disillusioned in Germany. Bayern have just signed Robert Lewandowski from Borussia Dortmund, and the Polish hitman is set to push Mandzukic down the pecking order under Pep Guardiola. Bayern are reportedly asking for £20 million for the Croatian striker, which represents something of a bargain when compared with other options. Mandzukic scored 18 Bundesliga goals in 30 appearances last season, despite going through a difficult time in Bavaria.
