London - Sana
Press reports have confirmed that the English club Liverpool has identified the defender who wants to buy his services as a substitute for Dutchman Virgil Van Dyck, who is expected to be absent for a long time due to injury.
According to the Portuguese television network "Sic Noticias", Liverpool is attending an offer to bring in Portuguese Olympiacos defender Robin Semedo for a period of five years.
Liverpool desperately needs to sign a middle defender after he also lost the services of Joe Gomez due to the injury, noting that the Brazilian Fabinho will occupy the position of the center of the defense alongside Joel Matip when he also recovers from the injury pending a contract with a new defender in the next winter transfer period.
For its part, "The Sun" newspaper reported that the deal to include Simedo may cost Liverpool only 8 million pounds, noting that the list of options for the English team also includes Brighton defender Ben White and Schalke defender Ozan Kabak.
The 26-year-old played two international matches with the Portuguese national team and played for Sporting Lisbon and Villarreal before joining Olympiacos in the summer of last year.
