Generational star confirms he's now ready to join Liverpool There's an exciting centre-back who is ready to join Liverpool. When Richard Hughes failed to secure Marc Guehi during the summer transfer window, there was an uneasy sense that the decision might come back to haunt the club. That concern has now become reality.
The serious injury to Giovanni Leoni has left Liverpoolโs defensive depth in a fragile state. Passing up another opportunity to sign Guehi in January - only to see him join Manchester City - has made the earlier failure feel even more costly. There has been some forward planning, with the arrival of Jeremy Jacquet, but he and Leoni cannot be the only 'new' centre-bacjs at Anfield next season.
The truth is, relying on Jacquet and the injured Leoni is simply not enough. With Joe Gomez and Ibrahima Konate both struggling with fitness concerns and facing uncertain futures, reinforcements are essential. Liverpool also cannot afford to depend too heavily on inexperienced options like Mor Talla Ndiaye or Ifeanyi Ndukwe.
If they are to restore stability at the back, further additions are not just necessary - they are urgent. Let us introduce you to Liverpool's perfect solution to this problem - Dylan Lawlor. He's kind of a cross over between Joel Matip and Adam Wharton but in centre-back form.
