Liverpool Football Club have been going through a period of significant change since the departure of Jurgen Klopp at the end of last season.
New Manager Arne Slot is currently making his mark on The Reds by implementing his new tactics and experimenting with various changes in player positions during pre-season fixtures.
Liverpool have also been actively trying to secure the transfers of exciting players throughout the summer including names like Anthony Gordon and Marc Guehi.
At the same time, there are rumours of various Liverpool players being monitored by rival clubs and looking to move on from Anfield and make their mark elsewhere.
WHICH LIVERPOOL DEFENDER IS WEST HAM INTERESTED IN?
According to HITC, English side West Ham United F.C. are reportedly interested in acquiring the services of Joe Gomez from Liverpool this summer.
Gomez has been a familiar foe for The Hammers over the years and the former Charlton man would bring a wealth of experience to West Ham’s backline.
This was not the first time West Ham have shown interest in the defender. Last summer, the club regularly attempted to negotiate the player’s departure from Anfield but eventually came to nothing.
However, this time could be different as Gomez has stated his intention to leave the club by saying he is ‘open to a new challenge’ this summer.
Recently it was revealed that a swap deal between Newcastle and Liverpool involving Gordon and Gomez was nearly complete.
Gomez has also gained interest overseas from Bayern’s newly appointed manager Vincent Kompany.
As there are various clubs interested interested in acquiring the Englishman’s services, West Ham will be looking to make an official offer in the coming days to secure the transfer ahead of their competitors.
As Gomez is a versatile and experienced defender who is highly sought after from both local and international clubs, it looks increasingly likely the 27-year old will be departing Anfield this summer.
