Liverpool discover Juventus star Andreas Cambiaso as Trent Alexander-Arnold replacement

Liverpool has discovered Juventus star Andreas Cambiaso as the perfect replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold as his imminent departure to Real Madrid beckons.

The Mersey-side Reds will have to find have to fill the void created by the Englishman. According to a report from Gazzetta dello Sport, Liverpool have lined up a host of replacements, with 25-year-old Cambiaso at the top of the list.

Other reports from Football Italia emphasises Liverpool’s plans to make a summer move for Juventus right-back Cambiaso as a potential successor to Alexander-Arnold, who is closing in on an agreement to sign for Real Madrid as a free agent.

With Alexander-Arnold seemingly having one foot out of Anfield and at the Santiago Bernabeu, the Reds have begun working behind the scenes to sign a talented right-back and have set their sights on Juventus’ Cambiaso per reports from Italy.

However, this will by no means be any signing, as Manchester City and Bayern Munich look to strengthen that department of their squad in the summer window.

Juventus is in dire need of cash and needs to raise some cash to balance their books while also raising €30m by the end of the financial year to cover the costs of Thiago Motta’s sacking.

Reports suggest Cambiaso could be the player sold by June 30 to help meet their business target, with the Bianconeri aiming to receive a €60m fee from the Italy international’s sale.

Liverpool’s season has fallen apart -Arne Slot’s remarkable start to life in the Premier League hitting a snag. Having already been eliminated from the FA Cup by Plymouth Argyle in February.

This was surprisingly followed by a series of disappointing results earlier this month as they were ousted from the Champions League in the last-16 by PSG, followed by a Carabao Cup final loss to Newcastle United in the same week.

However, with 70 points at the top of the Premier League, Slot’s men are expected to lift the prestigious trophies come May -claiming only their second title in the Premier League era this season.

A Mersey-side derby against Everton awaits the leaders on Wednesday, April 2 following the conclusion of the international break.
