Klaas Jan Huntelaar
Bundesliga side FC Schalke recently started contract talks with their striker Klaas Jan Huntelaar. The Dutchman had revealed in July that he will discuss a new contract as his current deal will expire next summer. However, with his side struggling in the Bundesliga under new manager Roberto Di Matteo, there is every chance that he will stall signing the new deal until January just to see what offers he gets on the table. If he does so, then Liverpool will be waiting to pounce as they want to add a proven goalscorer because of the injury history of Daniel Sturridge and the inconsistency of Mario Balotelli.
