From the source

Liverpool are reportedly keen on signing Borussia Dortmund defender Nico Schlotterbeck, as per Football Insider. After being impressed by the 26-year-old’s performances for Freiburg, BVB decided to purchase him back in 2022, and he has established himself as an undisputed starter.

In 37 appearances across all competitions, Schlotterbeck scored five goals and registered a solitary assist last term. Moreover, he helped his side keep 12 clean sheets.

Having proven his worth in club football, the defender has secured his place in the German national team’s starting line-up. Now, Football Insider state that despite signing Jeremy Jacquet and Ronald Araujo recently, Liverpool are considering purchasing a new centre-back as Virgil Van Dijk and Joe Gomez’s existing deal is set to run until next summer.
