n8rngtd.topLiverpool owner Tom Werner has hinted that the club would be interested in signing Fulham star Clint Dempsey this summer.
The United States international has had his best season in England to date this term, and has taken the goalscoring responsibilities at Craven Cottage on his shoulders this campaign.
With the north American’s contract expiring in the summer of 2013, rumours have it that Martin Jol’s men may well have to part with Dempsey when the transfer window reopens, with Arsenal a potential suitor.
However, with Liverpool expected to strengthen in the summer also, Werner has praised his countryman.
“We never talk publicly about our transfer targets, however, any team would be lucky to have Clint Dempsey playing on their squad,” he told Mirror Football.
Liverpool’s lack of clinical finishing has been on of the reasons for their poor league form this term, and Dempsey would certainly add a threat on goal if acquired.
