Liverpool FC are just one amongst a host of Premier League giants weighing up a move for the highly-rated Cagliari defender Sebastian Walukiewicz as the Polish centre-back continues to impress during his breakout spell in the Serie A.
A long-lasting injury crisis for the Merseysiders has left Joel Matip as the sole fully fit centre-back available to Jurgen Klopp’s disposal, leading to the Liverpool FC boss utilising Fabinho in the central defender role since the last couple of months.
However, in anticipation of the upcoming winter transfer window, Klopp’s side are tipped to add fresh blood to the first-team defensive ranks in order to keep their title-defence momentum intact as Tottenham Hotspurs and Chelsea continue to advance on all fronts in the Premier League.
Walukiewicz has stood out this season in the Cagliari shirt with his consistent run of form for the Italian outfit, with the player having demonstrated a tough-minded defensive ability through his physique and technique on the ball, according to reports from The Sun.
The Anfield giants’ pursuit to sign the defender, however, will be tested by the high price-tag speculated to be demanded by Cagliari due to Walukiewicz having signed extended terms until 2024.
