One defender ‘would love to join’ Liverpool if Arne Slot becomes the next Reds manager.

Jurgen Klopp will be leaving Liverpool in a few weeks’ time and we’re sure it will be an emotional day for everyone associated with the club.

It looks like Slot will be the man to replace Klopp this summer, and his arrival could open Liverpool’s doors to the Dutch market.

A report has now claimed that one player would love to join the Reds if Slot gets the job.

Liverpool have been linked with a number of defenders over the last few weeks, and one of them is now ready to join them – Lutsharel Geertruida.

The 23-year-old Dutchman is one of the Eredivisie’s best defenders.

Dutch outlet De Telegraaf have revealed that Geertruida ‘is ready for a transfer and would love to join Arne Slot to Liverpool’.

The talented defender was at the London Stadium at the weekend to watch Liverpool’s game against West Ham United.

The report claims Liverpool are ready to pay £25.6 million for Geertruida and Slot knows how valuable an asset he can be thanks to his versatility of playing across the backline as well as in defensive midfield.

Lutsharel Geertruida is a dream player for any manager to have in his side.

He is ‘extremely dominant’ in the air too and is a big threat in set-piece situations.

What should excite Liverpool fans even more is that the outlet claims Geertruida is very similar to Real Madrid and Spain legend Sergio Ramos, who is one of the most accomplished players in the history of the game.
