Liverpool are among the clubs that have “been watching” Crystal Palace centre-back Maxence Lacroix, according to journalist Pete O’Rourke. He will be looking at the success his old partner Marc Guehi has had since he was allowed to leave in January, and he’ll be thinking he can replicate that.

“Liverpool want a new centre-back and have been watching him, and Chelsea are in a similar position, they would like to bring him in this summer. It would allow him to move back to Germany where he has played before, and to a club who are almost guaranteed to win trophies and compete for the Champions League.

That would make sense as the next step for him after the success he’s at at Crystal Palace.” Could Maxence Lacroix excel in a Liverpool shirt? Lacroix has proven himself in English football over an extended period, which is an immediate positive with him, and he is coming right into his peak as a centre-back.
