Greek defender Kostas Tsimikas joined Liverpool from Olympiacos in the summer of 2020 as a backup to Scottish defender Andy Robertson. In his first year with the club, he failed to show his ability due to a corona infection and a series of injuries.
However, in his second year, he made a fresh start. In his second year, however, he has changed his mind. In addition to his accurate crosses, he is a tenacious defender and creates chances from his accurate crosses when he is up front. During Robertson’s out of form period, he showed that he could play regularly.
The Greek defender, who has played 62 games so far at Anfield, is under contract until 2025. According to The Athletic, Liverpool and the player have agreed on a two-year contract extension and will soon sign a new contract until 2027.
Right back Trent Alexander-Arnold has adopted a system in which he moves up to midfield while the ball is in his possession, and the left back must also respond. Robertson often falls into one of the three-back positions, but Tsimikas tested the move in pre-season as a false back.
If the England defender is unable to play, he could build an attack from the left flank, and that game would show the true value of the 27-year-old sideback’s flexibility.
“Greek Scouser”, the player is well-loved in Liverpool and will continue to fight for the team.
