Liverpool will find it hard to sign a top-class striker this summer - Owen

The former Reds forward believes the form of Salah, Mane and Firmino will make Jurgen Klopp's life difficult in the transfer market

Michael Owen believes the calibre of Liverpool’s front three will make it difficult for the Reds to recruit a world-class forward this summer.

The former Kop favourite is backing his old club to hold their nerve in the Premier League title race, and says the form of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane will be key if they are to hold off the challenge of Manchester City.

That trio have managed 44 goals in all competitions this season, adding to the remarkable total of 91 from last term.
