Liverpool are preparing to go head-to-head with arch-rivals Manchester United in the race to sign a £23 million-rated Premier League centre-back.
The defender, widely praised as a “born leader” on the pitch, has quickly established himself as one of the most reliable young defenders in England’s top flight.
Arne Slot is said to be pushing for defensive reinforcements, and this player is seen as an ideal fit to strengthen Liverpool’s backline. Manchester United, however, are also keen, with Erik ten Hag eager to bolster his defense after a string of injuries last season.
The tug-of-war between the two Premier League giants has already sparked major excitement among fans, who believe this signing could prove crucial in the upcoming campaign.
With both clubs determined, the battle for the defender’s signature is expected to intensify in the coming days.
More details are expected soon as negotiations move forward.
