Danny Ings has seen his career stutter since making the move from Burnley to Liverpool in 2015.

Injuries have been a major hinderance during his time on Merseyside, and it has restricted him to just six Premier League starts in three seasons.

With manager Jurgen Klopp having Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane providing the main attacking threat, it is difficult to see a place for Ings, even when fit.

Understandably, that is why the 25-year-old is open to leaving Anfield and seeking pastures new, according to the Daily Mail.

Southampton should certainly be keeping an eye out for a new attacking player considering how lacklustre they were in front of goal last season.

Manolo Gabbiadini, Shane Long and Charlie Austin failed to deliver consistently, and while it may seem like a bizarre suggestion to sign a player like Ings who has barely touched the pitch in recent years, there is a risk worth taking.

When fit, Ings has the ability to be a reliable goalscorer, and he would fit into the Southampton team.

Judging by the outcome of our recent poll the fans feel the same way.
