The Reds are in the hunt for a new centre-back following the sale of Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen earlier this summer as part of their significant reshuffle.

The future of Ibrahima Konate at Merseyside is also uncertain, with Real Madrid keeping a close watch on his situation.

The French international's contract expires next summer and negotiations to extend his stay are not advancing, leaving Liverpool with a difficult decision to make.

Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi has previously been identified as Liverpool's ideal defensive acquisition, with the England international also having just one year remaining on his contract at Selhurst Park.

According to GiveMeSport, Liverpool are keeping a 'close eye' on Toulouse's Cresswell.

The 22-year-old impressed in Ligue 1 last season after his summer transfer from Leeds United, and it's reported that Slot's team have regularly scouted him to track his progress at the club.

Cresswell also stood out over the summer, playing a pivotal role in England's Under-21 European Championship triumph, and his performances did not go unnoticed in the Premier League

He's seen as a player with the potential to step up and perform for a top-six team in the future, and Liverpool might make a move sooner rather than later to avoid any bidding wars with their rivals down the line.

Arne Slot's team have been assertive in the transfer market thus far, so a double swoop for Guehi and Cresswell shouldn't be dismissed - particularly given the uncertainty surrounding Konate's situation and persistent rumours of a move to Madrid.

Liverpool are also eyeing other high-profile signings in different areas of the pitch, with a winger and Newcastle striker Alexander Isak on their radar.
