Daring raid on Stamford Bridge! Liverpool ready to poach Chelsea's key defender
Liverpool are showing serious interest in Chelsea right-back Malo Gusto, hoping to seal a high-profile move during the upcoming winter transfer window.
Details: According to respected outlets El Nacional and TEAMtalk, the Merseyside giants see the 23-year-old Frenchman as the ideal addition to the right side of their defence. The Blues do not consider the defender untouchable and are willing to sell if a financially attractive offer comes in, while the player himself is also keen to move in search of a guaranteed place in the starting XI.
At Anfield, Gusto's tactical flexibility, aggressive pressing and pace when joining attacking moves are highly valued. The parties are already preparing to begin substantive talks, and the player's willingness to join the Reds could significantly accelerate negotiations.
It is worth noting that Malo Gusto joined Chelsea from French side Lyon in January 2023. He has established himself as one of the hardest-working full-backs in the Premier League and earned call-ups to the France national team.
