According to a report by Daily Mail, Lutsharel Geertruida is the subject of interest from Liverpool. The Reds are scouring the market for a right-back heading into the summer transfer window as they prepare for life after Trent Alexander-Arnold. So, several candidates have emerged on the Merseyside club’s wishlist.
Jeremie Frimpong is the priority target for Liverpool, with widespread reports claiming they are closing in on signing the Bayer Leverkusen wide player. However, the Reds have kept their options open if they fail to land the Dutchman, with his compatriot Lutsharel Geertruida emerging as an alternative on the Merseyside club’s wishlist.
Lutsharel Geertruida has been one of the most dependable defenders in the world in the last few years. The 24-year-old graduated from the youth division at Feyenoord and rose in prominence during his spell with the Eredivisie outfit. He even served the Feyenoord as the club captain before joining RB Leipzig last summer.
The Dutch defender has turned out 34 times thus far for Liverpool while chipping in with one goal and one assist. Meanwhile, the Netherlands international has piqued the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe with his exploits for his club and country. Liverpool might be one of the prospective suitors vying for his signature heading into the summer transfer window.
Liverpool’s interest in Lutsharel Geertruida is understandable.
