Reportedly, Liverpool is interested in signing Jurrier Timber from Ajax during the upcoming summer transfer window to bolster their defense.
Liverpool is reportedly in pursuit of Ajax’s versatile Dutch defender Jurrien Timber to reinforce their backline for the upcoming season. The Reds face competition from several other major European clubs, including Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Dortmund.
According to reports from HITC, as cited by
, Timber is on Liverpool’s radar due to his ability to play both as a right-back and a central defender.
The 21-year-old was heavily linked with a move to Manchester United last year, but the transfer never materialized, and the Red Devils opted for his former Ajax teammate, Lisandro Martinez.
Despite his youth, Timber has already played an impressive amount of football and is a full international for the Netherlands. He received a call-up from Louis van Gaal for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
However, Liverpool will have to outdo their competitors to secure the talented defender’s signature. The upcoming transfer window is sure to be a fiercely contested one, and it remains to be seen if Timber will end up at Anfield next season.
