Liverpool 'send representatives' to watch Japanese sensation with 18 goal contributions this season

Liverpool reportedly had scouts in the stands recently to watch Brondby forward Yuito Suzuki.

Danish outlet Bold suggests that the Reds were one of several clubs who had eyes on the 22-year-old's stellar showing in a 2-1 victory over FC Midtjylland. The Reds, along with Manchester City, Tottenham and Ajax, are all said to have had representatives casting their eye over Suzuki - and he didn't disappoint.

The Japan youth international plundered a first-half double to give Brondby a victory in the Danish play-offs. Suzuki has been in rampant form this season, recording 10 goals and eight assists in 27 appearances.

Signing from Shimizu S-Pulse last summer, Suzuki has mainly operated as a striker but is also capable of playing as a No.10 and on the right flank. He's expected to represent Japan at this summer's Olympics in Paris.
