A centre-back would be ideal for Liverpool and Marc Guehi is the obvious target after his move from Crystal Palace fell through on Deadline Day in September. The question for Liverpool is whether they wait until the summer when he will be available on a free, which that seems the likelier option. Liverpool have conceded 39 goals in 26 games this season, compared to the 55 goals they conceded across 56 games last season in Arne Slot's first campaign at the club. It's unlike Liverpool to seek expensive fixes to short-term problems but with the future of Mohamed Salah in doubt, they may make a move for another attacker in January. Antoine Semenyo is a player who Liverpool are interested in but Manchester City are in pole position to sign the Bournemouth winger.
