According to reports cited by DaveOCKOP, FC Nantes' young defender Tylel Tati is attracting significant interest from major European clubs, including Liverpool. Scouts from Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester United, and other top teams are closely monitoring the 17-year-old French-Congolese player's performances. What sets Tati apart is his positional versatility: he is comfortable playing on his weaker side, can shift to left-back when needed, and has the composure to operate as a defensive midfielder, effectively breaking up play and advancing possession even in tight spaces.



Nantes is reportedly taking a cautious and patient approach, focusing on Tati's development and ensuring he gains experience in multiple roles before they consider any serious transfer offers. This measured strategy indicates the club's intent to nurture his potential rather than rush into a sale.

The interest in Tati goes beyond the Premier League. European giants such as Barcelona, who see him as a long-term investment to modernize their defense, along with German clubs RB Leipzig and Bayer Leverkusen, are also keeping close tabs on the defender. This broad attention underscores Tati's reputation as one of France's brightest young defensive talents.

For Liverpool, who are planning for the future of their backline, Tati represents the type of high-ceiling, versatile young player they have historically developed and built success around. If his development continues on this trajectory, Liverpool may find themselves in a competitive race to secure his signature, strengthening their defensive options for years to come.
