"It will be interesting to see if links with Ordonez perhaps become more concrete again soon, but for now LFC appear to be prioritising more experienced names. Arne Slot has Giovanni Leoni as an elite defensive prospect, though of course he's currently out with a long-term injury. For the time being, though, it surely makes the most sense to bring in someone who can definitely make an impact straight away, hence the pursuit of someone like Marc Guehi over the summer."
"There's no doubt something needs to be done in defence for Liverpool, though, as they've been conceding a lot of goals so far this season. Fans wondering how to buy Eintracht Frankfurt vs Liverpool tickets will also surely be wondering if Slot's men can tighten up at the back as they look to bounce back with a win in the Champions League after losing to Galatasaray last time out."
Liverpool have reduced their pursuit of Club Brugge defender Joel Ordonez while Newcastle United and Aston Villa have emerged as stronger suitors. Ordonez remains of interest to multiple clubs and could cost around 50m despite not being a current priority for Liverpool. Liverpool are prioritising more experienced defensive signings such as Marc Guehi, Castello Lukeba and Sven Botman to provide immediate impact. Arne Slot views Giovanni Leoni as an elite defensive prospect, but Leoni is currently sidelined with a long-term injury. Liverpool have conceded many goals this season and need defensive reinforcements, with recent Champions League form highlighting defensive concerns.
