Arrived this summer from Ajax Amsterdam, Sven Botman is one of the revelations of the start of the season in Lille. Undisputed holder under the orders of Christophe Galtier, the Dutch defender could be the subject of an offer from Liverpool during the winter transfer window.
Anxious to strengthen his central hinge following the injuries of Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez, the Reds would closely follow the Lille according to information from Duncan Castles, author for the Sunday Times. The Daily Express has underlined in recent days the enthusiasm of Reds supporters for the defender’s publications on social networks.
Botman cheaper than Upamecano
Transferred to LOSC for only eight million euros, Sven Botman could bring a nice added value to the Mastiffs. Looking for a defender who can help the team immediately, while providing a long-term solution, Liverpool could quickly position themselves on the player who will turn 21 on January 12.
A time tracked by Jurgen Klopp, Dayot Upamecano would be considered too expensive for the winter transfer window. Appeared 23 times this season in all competitions (for only two defeats) with Lille, Sven Botman would be like a nice shot. It remains to be seen for what amount the LOSC would agree to part with a player who has already made himself indispensable in Ligue 1 and the Europa League.
