This is genius! Michael Edwards makes contact to sign Argentine star

Michael Edwards has made contact to sign an Argentine star in a genius move.

Jeremy Jacquet looks set to be the first of several new arrivals at Liverpool this summer in the centre-back department.

The club have already agreed a deal for the young defender to join in July, with the expectation that he will provide valuable depth in a position where options are currently thin.

However, Liverpool’s plans for the centre-back role do not stop there, and further additions are firmly on the agenda as part of a wider defensive reshaping.

Ifeanyi Ndukwe is also joining the club this summer and there will be more experience on the way too.

Much of thie activity will be driven by growing uncertainty around several of the club’s existing defenders. Ibrahima Konate is approaching the final stages of his contract, and with no extension agreed, the possibility of a departure is becoming increasingly real with every passing day.

At the same time, Joe Gomez continues to attract interest from elsewhere. He came close to securing a move to AC Milan last summer, and with his current deal running until 2027, Liverpool could be tempted to sell while his market value remains high.

If they both leave, Jacquet’s arrival will just the beginning, but even if they don't, the Reds already have their sights set on at least one more signing.

Michael Edwards will know first hand that not having enough depth in the defensive department can really hurt a team's season.

Jacquet is an excellent player but he is young and he will be adjusting during his first few months in England. At the same time, will still be coming back from his injury.
