Liverpool has identified its defensive priority
Liverpool’s defensive priority coming into focus
Behind the scenes, Liverpool FC continues to scan the market despite a recent wave of signings. The defense remains a closely monitored project, driven more by anticipation than urgency, as the management is already preparing the balance for next season.

One of the profiles under consideration is Micky van de Ven, who has firmly established himself at the heart of Tottenham Hotspur’s back line. The Dutch defender, tied down by a long-term contract, has caught Liverpool’s eye thanks to his reliability and room for growth, especially as the Reds look to secure the future of their central defense.
There are no signs of an immediate move, however. Tottenham have no intention of making things easy, and this situation seems more likely to play out in the summer. At Anfield, the approach remains methodical—ready to pounce if an opportunity arises, but without haste or bidding wars.
