"Liverpool's right-back issues were completely exposed in their 1-1 draw against Chelsea as Curtis Jones was asked to fill in. While the Reds do have Conor Bradley and Jeremie Frimpong, the duo have struggled to stay fit, and Slot doesn't really trust the latter defensively. As a result, signing a new right-back is a top priority for the Reds ahead of next season, and Tino Livramento is the latest name on their wishlist."
"He has already proven himself in the Premier League, and his ability to feature on either flank makes him a very interesting option for them. The 23-year-old could actually be on the move this summer, as contract renewal talks with Newcastle have stalled and the English international is now open to discussing a potential move away."
"Liverpool have always had appreciation for Tino Livramento, who is capable of playing right-back and left-back. He's a player I expect Newcastle United to put available on the market."
"With renewal talks not going as planned, the Magpies could look to cash in on him. The funds raised could then be used to revamp the squad as a whole. The Tyneside club want around 70 million to sanction his departure."
Liverpool are seeking a new right-back ahead of next season after defensive issues were exposed in a 1-1 draw with Chelsea. Curtis Jones was used in the role, while Conor Bradley and Jeremie Frimpong have struggled with fitness and defensive trust. Tino Livramento is viewed as a strong option because he has Premier League experience and can play both right-back and left-back. Newcastle contract renewal talks have stalled, and Livramento is open to discussing a move this summer. Newcastle may consider selling him for around £70 million, with the proceeds intended to help revamp the squad.
