Liverpool defender Joe Gomez is tied to a move away from the club this summer.
Several clubs wanted to finance the 28-year-old Liverpool defender, but the club decided to keep him.
According to Sky Sports’ Rob Dorsett, Arne Slot has decided to keep the 28-year-old at the club. Gomez has been an extraordinary servant of Liverpool for many years, and his ability to slot in multiple areas and play at high levels makes him an invaluable player.
Liverpool makes Joe Gomez decision
Liverpool doesn’t want to lose him this summer. Gomez showed his quality yesterday in place of the injured Ibrahima Conate. The 28-year-old has an exceptional shift and there’s no doubt that he will become a key player for Liverpool this season.
Liverpool hopes to compete for the title and the UEFA Champions League. They need quality players like him. They will need a deeper team to do well across multiple competitions. They are expected to sign Crystal Palace defender Mark Guech this summer, but Slot decided not to leave the club to Gomez.
Keeping Gomez can be a wise decision
This decision could be a hit for the 28-year-olds who would have expected to play more frequently this season. He links to clubs like AC Milan and they may have given him more time.
But it’s a wise decision from the slots and can pay a big dividend to Liverpool this season. Liverpool will be very active in the transfer market and will be desperate to win all the major trophies. They need to maintain a quality player.
