There are growing doubts surrounding Dominik Szoboszlai at Liverpool, as the club is reportedly interested in signing Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze to replace the 23-year-old in Arne Slot’s squad.
Szoboszlai, who joined Liverpool last summer in a £60m transfer from RB Leipzig, has struggled to make a significant impact despite his talent.
While he started his Liverpool career well, his influence faded throughout the 2023/24 season, managing just three goals and two assists in 33 Premier League appearances.
Harvey Elliott outperformed Szoboszlai towards the end of the season, providing three assists in Liverpool’s final three games, highlighting the Hungarian’s declining form.
Although Szoboszlai has shown some improvement under Slot’s management, his efficiency in the final third remains lacking.
A recent report suggests that Liverpool is considering Eze as a more effective creative option, with doubts growing over Szoboszlai’s ability to deliver consistently.
Liverpool has struggled to generate goals from midfield, with only two of their 23 goals this season coming from that area—something Slot wants to improve.
Eze, who recorded 11 goals and four assists in 27 Premier League matches last season, is seen as a strong addition to Liverpool’s squad.
Despite playing for a struggling Crystal Palace side, Eze has impressive stats this season, creating 12 chances and touching the ball 383 times, outperforming Szoboszlai in many attacking metrics.
Adding Eze could bolster Liverpool’s creativity, making them an even more formidable attacking force.
