"I was rooting for Liverpool in the draw. Van Dijk is, in my opinion, the best central defender in the world. I can learn everything from him: his heading ability and timing, his calmness and physical presence, his aura."
Eintracht Frankfurt defender Nnamdi Collins has attracted interest from six Premier League clubs including Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester City, Newcastle United, Brighton, and Brentford. The 22-year-old, who joined Frankfurt from Borussia Dortmund in 2023, operates as both a centre-back and right-back. His versatility addresses Liverpool's defensive concerns in both positions. Collins remains contracted to Frankfurt until 2030, requiring a substantial offer for any transfer. Liverpool may hold an advantage through Virgil van Dijk, whom Collins publicly praised in a September 2025 interview, stating he can learn everything from the Reds captain regarding heading ability, timing, calmness, and physical presence.
