Liverpool are renewing their interest in Lille central defender Sven Botman. The Merseysiders were connected to the talented Dutchman at the beginning of the year. Now, however, Anfield have decided that it is ultimately vital to attract a player to the center of defense, after Joel Matip suffered another injury last night and will probably also be absent for a long time. Thus, the only players that Jurgen Klopp has in this area are Rhys Williams and Nat Phillips. Fabinho, who replaced Virgil van Dyke, also missed the derby with Tottenham yesterday due to a muscle injury. After the match, Klopp hinted that the club should try to take a central defender by Monday, when he closes the winter transfer window. The 21-year-old Botman has not missed a game for Lille since the beginning of the season. He is a youth national of the Netherlands, and has already received a call-up for the first team of the `tulips`, although he has not yet made his debut for him. Botman`s good performance is confirmed by the fact that Lille has conceded only 15 goals in 21 games analyzed by livestream - nations league in Ligue 1 so far and by this indicator the `dogs` are second only to the champion PSG. According to the Daily Espresso, Lille will ask for between ? 20m and ? 30m for Botman, after attracting around ? 7m a year and a half ago. The transfer market in England closes on Monday, February 1, at 23:00 local time.
