They need quality and depth in the defensive unit, and the 20-year-old is a long-term asset. It would not be a surprise if they refused to sanction his departure.
Meanwhile, Liverpool needs more quality in the defensive unit. They are likely to lose Ibrahima Konate in the summer when his contract expires. The French International has not signed an extension with the club. In addition, Joe Gomez could be on his way out of the club as well. He needs to play regularly at this stage of his career, and Liverpool will not be able to provide him with that opportunity.
Signing a talented young central defender should be a priority for Liverpool, and the Spaniard would be ideal for them. He knows the Premier League well, and he could make an immediate impact. The opportunity to join Liverpool could be an interesting option for the player, especially if Real Madrid is willing to sanction his departure. It remains to be seen how the situation develops over the next few months.
Real Madrid paid €50 million for him, and the opportunity to make a quick profit could be tempting. Also, Liverpool’s sporting director, Richard Hughes, knows the player well from his time at Bournemouth, and he might be able to convince the player to return to England.
