Liverpool have one of the best left-back squads in the Premier League with Andy Robertson, Kostas Tsimikas and Joe Gomez. There are also promising youngsters in the academy and there is no sign of any recent reinforcements.
However, the Scottish defender is ageing and the Greek defender had a poor performance last season. Although the latter in particular has not been the subject of transfer rumours, many journalists have argued that it would not be a surprise if he left in the summer transfer window.
According to La Gazette du Fennec, Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Rayan Aït-Nouri, who has been the subject of interest since the start of the season, continues to attract attention and could be in contention with the likes of Manchester City and Chelsea.
The 23-year-old Algerian defender was a key player last season, scoring three goals and assisting two in 38 games. He has broken new ground, being used more often as a midfielder or in an attacking position than as a side-back.
He brings rhythm to attacks with his clever passing with his left foot and can dribble past opponents in one-on-one situations. He is not the type of player who has absolute confidence in his defensive response, but he is one of the best defenders in England, with a reputation for getting up front and joining the attack.
He joined Wolves from Angers in the summer of 2021 after a one-year loan spell. It’s time for him to consider stepping up as a player and we’ll be keeping an eye on his movements this summer.
