Though he has nailed down the position for now, Araujo is not a natural right-back, and until Bradley returns, the right of the defence will continue to feel like a position of vulnerability. Pennant agrees, telling TalkSPORT that he would like to see a new full-back on both sides for Liverpool, with a challenger for Bradley coming in on the right.

“He’s training in the international window or just after, he’ll be back in training,” Pennant answered. “He’s been out since January.” Pennant suggests Neco Williams signing With rumours gathering pace that Frimpong could be sold next summer – and Kostas Tsimikas out of contract – it feels very likely that Liverpool will grant Pennant’s wish and be in the market for a new right and left-back in 2027.

Asked by Graves to name who he would like to see brought in, the pundit suggested that the player who Bradley effectively replaced at Liverpool, Neco Williams, could be an option. “On the left hand side, it’s difficult off the top of my head, but there’s players out there that won’t cost you an arm and a leg who fit that mould and to play in the system.” Williams has developed into a fantastic Premier League full-back since leaving Liverpool in 2022, and as he is capable of playing on both sides of the defence, and is home-grown to boot, it would be a transfer which ticks a lot of boxes for the Reds.
