Liverpool eyeing shock move for Samuel Eto'o

London: English football club Liverpool are considering a shock move for former Chelsea striker Samuel Eto`o.

The Cameroon striker is available for free after his one-year contract with Chelsea expired and Liverpool see him as a potential candidate to bolster their attack, according to Daily Mail.

Liverpool have a huge void to fill after their talismanic striker Luiz Suarez departed in the summer for Spain`s Barcelona.

Another former Chelsea man, Daniel Sturridge has taken over the role of the club`s premier striker but manager Brendan Rodgers is considering swooping for Eto`o, a three-time Champions League winner.

The British daily also reported that Italy`s Inter Milan and Dutch club Ajax have both spoken to the player`s representatives in recent days.
