Premier League
Liverpool is in search of a new center-back due to the possibility of Virgil Van Dijk leaving the club once his contract expires. According to BILD, Anfield has set its sights on Keven Schlotterbeck, the current defender of Borussia Dortmund and one of the most solid center-backs in the Bundesliga.
The German center-back has shown exponential growth in recent seasons, establishing himself as a key figure in the yellow and black team's defense. His performance has not gone unnoticed by Arne Slot, who sees in him the ideal profile to strengthen Liverpool's defense in case Van Dijk does not renew his contract.
Contract preparations for the German center-back are already underway
The mentioned German media ensures that Liverpool would be willing to offer Schlotterbeck a salary of just over 5 million euros per season, which would mark a significant advancement in his career. However, it will not be a straightforward operation, as Borussia Dortmund considers the defender a key piece in its project and will not let him leave easily.
The evolution of the negotiations in the coming months remains to be seen, but what is certain is that Liverpool is already active in the market searching for a reliable replacement for their captain. With Schlotterbeck on the radar, the 'reds' could be preparing the perfect successor for one of their best center-backs in recent history.
