22-year-old Germany star is coming to solve two Liverpool problems There is a lot of doubt currently surrounding Liverpool’s back line. Several of the Reds’ defenders could be moving on at the end of the season. We could see Andy Robertson and Ibrahima Konate leaving on free transfers while offers could also be entertained for Joe Gomez, Rhys Williams and Calvin Ramsay.

Those potential exits could take plenty off the wage bill - now at record levels - but would leave Arne Slot and Richard Hughes in need of reinforcements. An ideal solution would be finding a player who could cover multiple roles. The Premier League champions have had issues at centre-back and right-back this season.

Owing to an injury to Giovanni Leoni and a failure to land Marc Guehi Arne Slot has only had three senior options available to him at centre-back. Over at right-back meanwhile injuries to both Conor Bradley and Jeremie Frimpong have had a big effect with midfielder pressed into action in that position. Eintracht Frankfurt's Nnamdi Collins is on the radar Now an opportunity to sign a player covering both positions has opened up with the news that Liverpool are seeking a deal for 22-year-old Germany international Nnamdi Collins .

That’s according to a report in Football Insider which claims the Anfield side are ready to go toe-to-toe with Europe’s elite to sign the versatile stopper. “Liverpool and Arsenal are among a number of top European clubs keeping tabs on Eintracht Frankfurt star Nnamdi Collins ahead of the summer transfer window,” the report reads.
