In the current campaign, the teenager has made 34 appearances for the Belgian club thus far and directly contributed in 8 goals.

He has featured in every single game at the African Cup of Nations but is yet to start for Morocco in the competition.

Last night, he only played for 6 minutes as a substitute as the Atlas Lions defeated Zambia 1-0 to seal their top spot in the group.

Liverpool already have ample quality and depth in the attacking third with stars like Salah, Nunez, Diaz, Jota and Gakpo around.
