Reds manager Roy Hodgson was unsuccessful in his bid to land a big-name striker as cover for Fernando Torres during the summer transfer window, reportedly missing out on four attacking targets.
Bayern’s Gomez was heading to Anfield on loan with a view to a £20m permanent deal in the summer but the deal fell through after the Bavarian giant's chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge pulled the plug on the deal at the last minute.
As a result, Hodgson had less than 48 hours to try and snap up Carlton Cole, Bobby Zamora or Kevin Doyle. All bids were rebuffed by the players respective clubs though.
Liverpool will now wait until the New Year to secure Gomez, using Hodgson's unspent money from the summer tranfer kitty to conclude a deal.
