Liverpool get pathway to complete deal for versatile Brazil defender
Liverpool will seek to rectify their right-back problem in this summerās transfer window.
Trent Alexander-Arnold left the club last year on a cut-price £10m deal to Real Madrid. Conor Bradley was given a new contract and Jeremie Frimpong was signed from Bayer Leverkusen for £29.5m.
Despite those deals Arne Slot has had to rely on midfielders to fill in at right-back all too often. Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo and Curtis Jones have all played there this season while Joe Gomez has had more football than many might have expected.
Links to right-backs are extensive - with Denzel Dumfries and Marco Palestra among those named as potential arrivals.

There remains the possibility that Liverpool move back in for a formerly named target in the shape of Wesley Franca of Roma.
Wesley, 22, was heavily linked with Liverpool before leaving Flamengo for the Italian capital last year. The Brazil international has grown in stature for Gian Piero Gasperiniās side this season - playing both left and right-sided wing-back roles.
Heās chipped in with five goals in Serie A and looks destined to move on to bigger and better things very soon.
Roma are owned by the Friedkin Group - who also own Everton - and a report in TEAMtalk claims the plan was to send Wesley to the blue half of Merseyside.
But a complicating factor in that deal is the Toffeesā impending failure to qualify for Europe. It will be difficult to convince Wesley to move to a mid-table club with no European football and that opens the door to other Premier League suitors.
Liverpool are among that number - as the champions āappreciate the Brazilianās profile and versatility,ā according to the report. But the Reds will have to watch out for Arsenalās interest in Wesley as well as Newcastle.
Richard Hughes therefore has a pathway to sign a player originally earmarked as Trentās replacement a year ago. Wesley has proven heās got what it takes to step up to European footballās demands and could be set for a big move this off-season.
