Even after securing the signing of Jeremy Jacquet, Liverpool’s need for another centre-back remains an utmost priority because of the uncertainty around the club's current options.
Apart from Giovanni Leoni, who is on a long-term deal, the rest of the club's current players have expiring deals either in 2026 or 2027.
The most immediate concern is Ibrahima Konate, whose deal is approaching its expiry at the end of the season.
But there is also a high likelihood that Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk will also depart Liverpool come the expiry of their deals in 2027.
So, more defenders are needed and the Reds have gotten a step closer to signing one this summer.
An interesting centre-back in football as the moment is the German international Nnamdi Collins.
He is currently the star of Eintracht Frankfurt and can play both as a centre-back and as a right-back. Recently, he also made his debut for the German senior national team and he's still only 21-years-old.
Altogether, he is a sensational talent and someone who could reach the very top of the game.
As per Get Football News Germany, Collins was speaking about his role model and has revealed that his favourite player is Liverpool's very own Van Dijk back in November of last year.
“I was rooting for Liverpool in the draw," Collins said.
"Van Dijk is, in my opinion, the best central defender in the world. I can learn everything from him: his heading ability and timing, his calmness and physical presence, his aura.”
