With Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas out injured, 27-year-old defender Joe Gomez made a big impact at left-back last season. The England defender has also been used as a defensive midfielder, opening up a new career, but has not been available in the new Arne Slott regime.
He was also linked with a move to Newcastle this summer and seemed to be on the verge of leaving, as he was included as a trade piece in negotiations for fellow England international Anthony Gordon, but he will remain at Anfield for the rest of the season.
According to international media outlet Football Insider, Newcastle United and Aston Villa have shown continued interest in Liverpool’s fourth-choice centre-back, and a battle could break out next summer if they can secure a new defender.
A utility player who can play in a variety of positions, including left and right back, centre-back and at the bottom of midfield. He has plenty of experience in the Premier League and has played on the big stage of the Champions League, so he could be a valuable asset for any club.
Could this be the last season for the 27-year-old defender, who is under contract until June 2027…?
