Since the midfield area was Liverpool’s main weakness last season, when the team finished fifth in the Premier League standings, Jürgen Klopp has prioritized that area this summer. With the departures of Jordan Henderson, James Milner, Fabinho, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, and Naby Keta, the club’s powerhouse has undergone a significant rebuild.
As Klopp nears completion of his seismic renovation in the centre of the park, Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Wataru Endo have so far taken their position. Given that Jol Matip’s contract is set to expire the following year, the Reds will probably address their defensive line once his midfield department has fully recovered.
Liverpool has shown interest in bringing in a new center-back this summer, but Merseyside officials haven’t placed that necessity at the top of their priority list. Levi Colwill was reportedly the subject of significant interest, but after months of rumors, the English defender chose to remain at Chelsea and inked a new deal at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues wonderkid is left-footed, but his resume is filled with skill and potential. Given that Matip, Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez, and Ibrahima Konaté are all right-footers, Klopp is reportedly interested in a left-footed alternative for the defense. Ragnar Klavan was really the last left-footed center-back at Anfield.
Klopp is up against managers in the rest of the Premier League who possess what he lacks, according to an examination of the league. Joko Gvardiol and Nathan Aké are recent additions to Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City squad. At Arsenal, Mikel Arteta has left-handed teammates in Gabriel Magalhes and Jakub Kiwior. Sven Botman plays for Newcastle United, and Lisandro Martnez for Manchester United after being acquired by Erik ten Hag from Ajax last year.
In fact, Liverpool has a match versus the latter planned for this weekend. Botman joined the Magpies from Lille only a year ago, making him a recent addition. The Dutchman has a commanding physical presence at 1.95m, is skilled in possession, and favors his left boot.
