Many may have even caught the eye of Liverpool ahead of a potential move, but forget about Elliot Anderson, there was another star they must now sign.Photo by Darren Staples / AFP via Getty ImagesMurillo was excellent against LiverpoolOne of Liverpool’s biggest issues so far this season has been their defence, with this evident again against Nottingham Forest.On the other hand, Sean Dyche’s team were excellent in this department and remained resolute throughout, with Murillo a big reason why.Not only was he brilliant on the eye, but his statistics back this up, with the Colombian winning both his tackles, all three of his ground duels and two of his three ground duels, as per sofascore.As well as this, he made 13 clearances, blocked three shots, made three recoveries and scored a very good goal, with this very much being a man of the match performance.Liverpool have been linked with Murillo in the past, but this performance has only shown further why he should be a target, even if he would cost a fair amount of money.READ MORE: Arne Slot explains why he decided not to play Joe Gomez at right-back during Liverpool’s latest thrashing Should Liverpool sack Arne Slot? Photo by Liverpool FC/Liverpool FC via Getty Images He may only be five foot, 11 inches, which is not particularly tall for a centre-back, but he still makes his presence known, and the fact he is only 23 means he still has plenty of time to grow.Ibrahima Konate’s performance only showed further why Liverpool need MurilloNot only was Murillo excellent, but Ibrahima Konate was very poor, with the Frenchman making error after error.He gave away a cheap corner for the first goal and got lucky that they had one ruled out after a poor piece of defending, with the 26-year-old subbed off in the second half.With talks over his contract still going on, the timing of his poor form is not the best, but this makes signing another defender only more essential.Marc Guehi is the obvious choice, but after how well Murillo did vs the Reds, it might be the Colombian who they should go for instead, or even as well as Guehi.
