Joseph Paintsil emerged as transfer target for Liverpool F/C

Ghanaian winger, Joseph Paintsil is on the radar of four English Premier League clubs ahead of the summer transfer window.
The red-hot KRC Genk star is also attracting interest from clubs across Europe’s top five leagues following his contribution to the Belgian outfit.

Paintsil has scored 17 goals and provided 14 assists in the regular season in Belgium, making him the most productive African player in Europe, ahead of Napoli’s Victor Osimhen and Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.

According to the Telegraph, Brighton & Hove Albion, Brentford, Fulham and Liverpool have all expressed interest in the 25-year-old and will battle for his signature this summer.

All four clubs have been monitoring the tricky winger, sending scouts to watch him at the Cegeka Arena.

The former Tema Youth attacker moved to Europe in 2017, where he spent a season on loan at Ferencvarosi before a permanent switch to Genk in 2018. Paintsil is reportedly worth £50 million.
