Kaveh Solhekol has told Sky Sports one of the most sought after players in the January transfer window will join Liverpool if FSG make a move.
Liverpool set to pursue new forward in January
The Reds are expected to pursue reinforcments to their forward line in the winter window after a string of unfortunate events has left Arne Slot short of options.
Mohamed Salah, whose future is in doubt, has departed for AFCON, while Cody Gakpo is sideline with a short-term injury.
Alexander Isak is set to be out for several months, with the Press Association reporting there are concerns within the club about serious damage to the striker's lower leg.

Slot admitted the £125m summer signing's situation did not look good after he was forced off in the 2-1 win over Tottenham on Saturday.
“If a player doesn’t even try to come back, that is usually not a good thing but I cannot say anything more than that.
“That is just gut feeling and nothing medical…let’s not be too negative yet. We don’t know yet. Let’s hope he is back with us soon.”
Isak has made 16 appearances since his British record move from Newcastle on deadline day but Saturday was only his sixth Premier League start, and now faces a lenghty wait to make his seventh.
FSG are expected to be active in the January transfer window, and Liverpool's top target is Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo.
The Cherries star has a release clause of £65m which will only be active for certain teams for a short period of time at the beginning of the window, and Solhekol, speaking live on Sky Sports News on Monday afternoon, claimed the Reds are favourites.
"My take on it is if Liverpool come in for him, he'll go to Liverpool."
Semenyo is "world class", says Kluivert
The 25 year-old Ghana international, who will not be at AFCON after the Black Stars failed to qualify, has scored eight times and provided three assists in 16 Premier League appearances this season.

His Bournemouth teammate, Justin Kluivert, was full of praise for the winger back in October.
"He is incredible, he shows it every game now," Kluivert told Sky Sports.
"He is just world-class. We are glad to have him and that is why I said we have a good team. He is the one that scores goals for us and we appreciate that. He's doing an amazing job."
