Liverpool are keeping tabs on the highly talented English defender, Charlie Creswell.
The 23-year-old has impressed with the England under-21 and Ligue 1 club Toulouse, and he could be available for £15 million. Cresswell has been labelled as an “excellent” defender during his time at Leeds.
According to a report from TBR football, Liverpool have been scouting the player and they could look to make a move in future. Multiple Premier League clubs are keen on him, including Newcastle United. It will be interesting to see if Liverpool and Newcastle decide to make their move for the player in the coming months.
Cresswell was linked with West Ham United recently.
Liverpool could use Charlie Cresswell
It is no secret that Liverpool need a quality central defender. Ibrahima Konate could be on his way out of the club when his contract expires in the summer of 2026. Joe Gomez has had multiple injury problems in recent seasons, and his availability remains a major concern.
Signing another central defender will be a priority for Liverpool. They have been linked with players like Marc Guehi as well. Cresswell would be a solid long-term acquisition for them. The 23-year-old has shown his quality in France, and the former Leeds man has the ability to succeed in England as well. The opportunity to join the Premier League champions could be quite attractive for him.
