Liverpool on the hunt for £10m rated Nigerian winger

Liverpool, as well as several other Premier League clubs, are reportedly keen on bringing the Nigerian to England, according to English outlet the 'Liverpool Echo'. 

Simon, who plays down the wing at Belgian club Gent, has one year remaining on his contract with the club, and is apparently worth in the region of £10m. 

The winger would be a squad player, serving as back up for Sadio Mane and Mo Salah, and is seen as a versatile forward who can play on either flank of the pitch. 

He bagged six goals and three assists for Gent this season, however he will not be travelling to Russia for the World Cup with his nation, having suffered from an injury.
