Liverpool were quick to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold. A few hours after the right-back was presented as a Real Madrid player, Jeremie Frimpong was tapped in as a replacement. With Jarell Quansah already in place at Erik ten Hag and Bayer Leverkusen, work is underway to fill the gap left by the young centre-back. Here, Liverpool are also aiming high, but now face strong competition from Thomas Frank and the gang.

Marc Guehi helped Crystal Palace to the historic FA Cup title last season, with 23 caps for the Three Lions since 2022, the 25-year-old has played his way onto the block at Liverpool and Tottenham.

According to The Telegraph, Liverpool are still favourites to win the signing battle, if Guehi chooses to leave Palace this summer, but Tottenham are back in the game. Spurs reportedly made a bid for Guehi this winter, without result. With only one year left on his contract at Selhurst Park, the timing is now.

With Thomas Frank as the new coach, Tottenham are keen to get the England international to stay in London – for Spurs.
