Liverpool is reportedly considering a move for a R52 million-rated PSG centre-back as Arne Slot looks to bolster his defensive options. Following a summer of big signings like Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz to revamp the attack, the focus may now shift to strengthening the heart of the defence.
Defensive Concerns at Anfield
Ibrahima Konate's inconsistent form and expiring contract are raising concerns, while Virgil van Dijk, though still a key player, will eventually need a long-term replacement. This has led Liverpool to explore potential defensive reinforcements in the transfer market.
PSG's Willian Pacho a Target?
According to reports, PSG's Willian Pacho is one of the players being considered. The young centre-back has impressed with his performances and could be a valuable addition to Liverpool's squad. His potential arrival could provide much-needed stability and competition in the defensive ranks.
The Reds are also linked with other centre-backs, including Marc Guehi, who could be available for free next summer. It remains to be seen which players Liverpool will ultimately target, but it's clear that strengthening the defence is a priority for Arne Slot.
The coming months will be crucial as Liverpool assess their options and make decisions on potential signings. The addition of a quality centre-back could be vital in their pursuit of silverware next season.
