Liverpool Transfers: 5 Alternative Options To Solomon Kalou
3. Lucas Piazon
The 19-year-old Chelsea winger is making quite an impression in the Dutch league this season as he is currently on loan at Vitesse. It would certainly be interesting to know if the Blues were prepared to sell the Brazilian as on current form Premier League clubs would be lining up to take him. Im sure Liverpool would love to take him, he usually plays as an attacking left winger and thats an area Liverpool could do with strengthening. The exciting thing about the player is his ability to score and assist goals. A record of 11 goals and eight assists from 16 games in the Eredivisie is certainly going to increase the interest in him. Piazon is the most consistent player in the Dutch league this season with an incredible average rating of 7.97; he also takes 2.6 shots, executes 3.1 key passes and goes on 1.9 dribbles per match. The player has yet to represent Brazil at either U21 or senior level but his performance at varies other youth levels provides further evidence of his ability to score goals. To be exact, Piazon scored 19 goals for the Brazilian U15 and U17 teams between 2009 and 2012 from just 22 appearances.
