Ben Jacobs has encouraged the fans of Liverpool and praying in the hope and praying for the addition of a new middle behind before the transfer window closes in three weeks.
Arne Slot currently only has three natural senior options in that area of the field, one (Joe Gomez) of which has lately been laid low with injuries and the head coach was forced to close the will of Andy Robertson, Kostas Tsimikas and Trey Nyoni from position when connecting holes during the Fixatures for the season.
The Reds were strongly associated this month with a movement for Crystal Palace Captain Marc Guehi, with Parma -Teen Giovanni Leoni and (as we reported Empire of the Kop Earlier today) Brentford’s Nathan Collins is also considered.
Jacobs: Liverpool will probably make a center-back this month
Jacobs took to x On Monday evening with an extensive update about where things stand with Liverpool’s striving for an extra center-back before the deadline of 1 September.
The journalist has claimed that LFC is that ‘Expected’ Sign a central defender in the next 21 days, with a ‘Since May feeling’ That such an addition would be made late in the summer.
Sports director Richard Hughes has compiled a shortlist of candidates who are usually at the age of 18-22, although one ‘Light exception’ is made for Guehi, which is seen as one ‘market opportunities too good to reject ‘.
Crystal Palace is said to be eager to sell him this year while he is still under contract, although the 25-year-old (with a value of £ 40 million) would be satisfied to see and is the remaining 11 months of his deal in Selhurst Park ‘Not agitating for a move ‘.
Jacobs added that the aforementioned Leoni also one ‘strong target in consideration ‘ At Anfield.
Guehi would certainly justify an exception in Liverpool
Fans in Liverpool can rightly worry about the plausible opportunity to end the transfer window with only three senior center-backs (perhaps less as an injury strike), although FSG is known not to press the panic button when it comes in this phase of the summer.
She does not recruit for the sake of 12 months ago when the season started without no new signing sessions being done and a movement for Martin Zubimendi that collapsed at the 11th hour, and they will not panic about the current defensive situation.
Hughes is required to close that obvious team delivery before the transfer window closes in three weeks, and it would be downright negligent not to introduce at least one good bid for Guehi, especially in the midst of reports that Manchester United has made an approach for him (Football transfers).
The captain of the Crystal Palace can be outside the age profile of a typical FSG signing, but on 25 he is in that sweet place to have sufficient experience at the elite level and at the same time only go into what his excellent football years should be. The international of England would also help to comply with the quota requirements of homegrown for domestic and European squadrons.
Nowadays it is rare that clubs get the chance to land such a player for just £ 40 million, and the apparent willingness of the Eagles to cash in instead of losing him to a free transfer must also play in the hands of Liverpool.
The Anfield Healarchy is famous because he does not bend before the swell of public opinion and massively deviate from their mode operandi, but given the circumstances a movement for Guehi would absolutely justify the ‘exception’ to Jacobs.
