Liverpool’s Blooming Transfer Window is dominated by the noise surrounding the frontline.
While Bayer Levalksen’s Florian Wiltz continues to be at the heart of the debate over the UK and record transfer to Anfield, the uncertain future of Darwin Nunes and Federico Chiesa suggests that new forwards can be signed. Luis Diaz also has vested interests in Barcelona, a professional league member in the Saudi Arabian league, and suitors.
Of course, Liverpool is already addressing two important concerns across the defensive aspect of Arne Slot. With Trent Alexander Arnold soaking the Spanish sun, Jeremy Fripon is welcomed by Reverkusen, while Bournemouth’s left-back Milos Kerkez is in the closure of his move to Merseyside.
Wirtz’s long-term bids rang out, but what’s expected is that it will be signed by an elite German playmaker. After this point, FSG organizes most of the transfer activity wonderfully early, leaving one or two tweaks left.
There may be plenty of cries from the third in the attack, but Liverpool is already about to raid Bournemouth for the now-sold star centre-back.
Why Liverpool needs centre-back
Last month, Dean Huijsen signed Real Madrid after La Liga Superpower activated its £50 million release clause. Analyst Ben Matinson had declared the Spaniard to be “the most in-demand centre-back in the world.”
Liverpool wanted to sign the 20-year-old along with the rest of the Premier League, but the Los Blancos screams were strong and they certainly won.
However, there are other central defenders in the market. Spain’s Huysen’s performance across recent national confrontations shows that he still has much to learn from the craft.

Names like Marc Guehi and Ousmane Diomande are advertised, but FSG may find the perfect new defensive power in the Netherlands.
Open talk about Liverpool Huijsen Alternative
It would have been good to fold Huijsen, but missing a player bound by Real Madrid is almost everything, not everything.
In particular, when FSG moved to another elite young talent at Ajax’s Jorrel Hato, Offside said sports manager Richard Hughes was known to be on Liverpool’s radar after he created an approach to gather information about dynamic defender transactions.
Chelsea have been in touch with players’ aides these days, but Arsenal was also enthusiastic.
Ajax will step down to selling the 19-year-old star this summer, but only at a reasonable price. Eredivisie Giants holds firmly at a asking price of 50 million euros (£43 million).
Why Liverpool wants Jorell Hat
All Liverpool’s persuasions sighed collective relief when Dutch icon Virgil van Dik extended his stay in Merseyside for another two years.
Mohamed Salah receives praise for his relentless attack output, but 33-year-old Van Dijk has all the influence and finding a successor actually becomes a hassle.
If the pigeons can’t collapse, that may be the case. The Dutch, a teenage defender, has already competed in Ajax for 111 seniors, showing an incredible level of technical skill.
In fact, according to FBREF, he was ranked in the top 2% of the Dutch Eredivisy fullbacks and in the top 12% with assists per 90 for pass completion.
On that memo, pigeon may have spent his lion share in the flanks for the 2024/25 season, but he is naturally a central defender, and his positional flow ency will only expand the scope of his future career in Liverpool.
Talent scout Jacek Kulig has put it there alongside Real Madrid’s new recruit Huijsen, saying he is “one of Europe’s most talented centre-backs of his generation.”

Data from the Transfer Market |
Given Liverpool’s contract with Kerquez, Hato was not welcomed by the fold in the sight set in a wide berth, but Jarrell Quanza has linked to a move away from Anfield this summer, with Hato returning to the right on numerous occasions under the slot.
The teenage sense of Ajax may just require the opportunity to thrive on the British coast. Seeing his inventory was considerably higher than when he was accidentally dumped by Juventus a year ago, he found a home at the Vitality Stadium and joined for a fee of £15 million (accidentally he was 19).
According to Sofascole, Hato scored 52% of duels in the Eredivisi campaign, but given his widespread playing, this is a respectable success rate, especially as he averaged 1.9 tackles per game.
Huijsen wasn’t that good at centre-back in the Premier League, earning 56% of duels and averaged just 1.1 tackles per game.
With a ballplay game that is hard to tireless energy, robust physicality, and actually a match for Fuizen, the pigeons may be the perfect signature for the Liverpool side, which requires a little more defensive depth.
Isn’t it strange that the aforementioned Matinson chose him as a “exceptional athlete”?
Is Liverpool taking a risk of over £40 million on their teenage defenders? That’s probably not, given that the pigeons are real and can cuddle up to the team with Vandic and Conate superstars.
