Ismaila Sarr says any player would be interested in playing for Liverpool and wants to join a team challenging for silverware should he leave Watford.
The 22-year-old has been linked with a move to the Premier League champions following Watford s relegation to the Championship.
He scored five top-flight goals in the 2019-20 campaign, including a brace in his side s shock 3-0 win over Liverpool in February, and set up four more.
But while the Senegal international is open to a move to Anfield, he is not actively seeking a transfer from Watford during the close season.
Liverpool are a really great team, everyone would love to play there, he told Senegalese publication Sans Limites.
“Goalscorer for Watford: Number 23, Ismaïla Sarr!”

They won the Premier League this year and the Champions League last year, but also there are great teams in the English league.
Frankly, I have yet to make a choice. If that were to happen, I just wish they are a good team. At the moment, there are only guesses.
He added: I still have years left on my contract with Watford; another four years.
If Watford want me to stay, I ll play in the Championship. A departure depends on them as well as me. This is normal.
Personally, our relegation hurt me a lot. I didn t think we would come to this. I told myself that we had to do everything not to go down to the Championship.
Asked if he would aim for a higher level than Watford if he moves on in the coming weeks, Sarr said: Yes, of course, everyone who works is looking for advancement.
Maybe if Watford frees me one day I could go and play for a bigger team. Go and showcase my talent elsewhere and then win trophies.
