It is no secret that they need more quality on the flanks. They were very keen on signing Yan Diomande from RB Leipzig. However, the Ivory Coast international has chosen to join PSG.

El Mala picked up 18 goal contributions last season, and he could prove to be an excellent long-term investment for Liverpool. He is highly rated across Europe and has the potential to become a key player for the club.
Liverpool have a tremendous track record of grooming young players, and they could help him fulfil his potential. It could be a solid long-term investment for the club. They have already signed Victor Munoz from Osasuna, and El Mala would be another quality long-term investment for them.
He has been hailed as someone who “can produce absolute highlights”.
