Liverpool is starting to look into the future of its defense. With the possible departure of Virgil Van Dijk this coming summer, the "reds" are on the lookout for his replacement and they have found one.

As reported by CaughtOffside, the Borussia Dortmund player, Nico Schlotterbeck, has emerged as the top candidate to fill the spot left by the Dutch international.

At 24 years old and with a market value of 40 million euros, the "reds" are willing to secure the German's services in a long-term contract for their defense.

Nico has shown great personality during his time at Borussia, being a key piece for the German team, enabling him to quickly adapt to different game situations, something that would be invaluable in a team competing at high levels like Liverpool.

If the negotiations go through, Schlotterbeck would not only have the task of replacing a legend but could also become a cornerstone for Liverpool's future. The Reds' fans are optimistic about the arrival of a player of his caliber, who could not only fill the void left by Van Dijk but also help the team continue competing for titles in the upcoming seasons.

A high price for the "Reds".

As mentioned earlier, Nico's market value is 40 million euros. With a contract in place until 2027, the German team does not want to let him go for less than 60 million euros, a quite high price for the Reds, but one they will have to pay to replace one of their defensive legends at Anfield.
