Not Fekir – Jurgen Klopp interested in signing World Cup winner for €35m

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is keeping tabs on Benjamin Pavard, as per KickOff (h/t Mirror).

The 22-year-old can play either as a right-back or a central defender and he recently won the World Cup with France in Russia. The report

Pavard’s stock has been on the rise since last season and he capped it off with a few brilliant displays in the World Cup too.

The youngster scored a wonderful volley in the clash against Argentina and he seems to be a sound defender as well.
It will be interesting to see where we might play him, given that he can cover a couple of positions on the pitch. The 22-year-old could provide competition to Trent Alexander-Arnold and Nathaniel Clyne for the right-back spot.

We have a few central defenders in the side too and with Virgil van Dijk being the first-choice in the team, Pavard could provide competition to the likes of Joe Gomez, Dejan Lovren and Joel Matip.
