Liverpool failed to beat relegation threatened Sunderland side away from home and have handed Chelsea the chance to go eight points clear at the top.
The Reds need to strengthen their attack in the winter transfer window now that Sadio Mane will be leaving for the AFCON.
A certain striker is in the limelight in the form of Benfica star Raul Jimenez but reports suggest the Merseysiders are looking to sign him next summer as a potential replacement for Daniel Sturridge (Squawka Exclusive).
The 25-year-old Mexican international has scored eight goals and provided two assists in 18 games for the Primeira Liga side this season.
He has netted nine times in 48 appearances for the senior national side. Last season, he was a key member of the Benfica side that won the title.
As per the provided Squawka link, the versatility of the £22million rated star ($27million) appeals Klopp who wants to secure his services with the future of Sturridge in doubt.
Raul is mainly a center forward but he can effectively play as a secondary striker and also as a winger when needed.
Liverpool will surely have more options and more time to evaluate the players next summer but at the moment, they must splash the cash to strengthen the attack this month to challenge for the title.

I do no what to say?klopp should sign player who could realize our dream.we suffer from defending,scoring,stopping shooting.this we can have excellent opportunity to sign even world class players b.c we playing good f.b.
I humbly urge LFC owners to do an honurable of strengthening our current team with immediate effect if the dream of challanging EPL title still exists, A reliable goalkeeper, van Djk from Saints , Dembele of Celtic and a defensive midfielder like Wietsel; We can ill-afford to let the title slip between our fingers, This must be done before the war to take place on 15 Jan,2017, Failing to do that will result to us kissing the title “good bye”
It could be suicidal if LFC OWNERS fail to bolster the squad; if the services of van Djk can be attained Klavan ca be deployed at left back and Milner be deployed at right wing where Mane operated; I love LFC to an extent I divorced my wife because she backed Man,U
