Liverpool Transfer News: Liverpool have Luka Vuskovic on their shortlist for next summer and are regularly monitoring the Brighton centre-back, according to Sky Sport Germany. This is his first Premier League season; he gave away seven fouls in his first five league games, and Hürzeler said the Premier League “will educate him” after the Leeds match.

Why Liverpool need a centre-back Liverpool’s need is real. Should Liverpool pay £87m for a teenage centre-back?

Brighton paid up to £50m in July for a teenager in his first Premier League season, and no release clause means Brighton, not Liverpool, would set the fee, with a player who reportedly dreams of Real Madrid. Keep tracking Vuskovic, but spend first on an experienced centre-back and revisit him only if Brighton’s £87m valuation drops.
