Liverpool’s hunt for the next big thing at left-back could see them land Argentine prodigy Julio Soler. The 19-year-old, a standout performer for Lanús and Argentina’s youth teams, has caught the eye of several top clubs. According to The Sun, Liverpool see Soler as a future successor to Andy Robertson and have already initiated contact with Lanús.
Soler’s rise has been meteoric. Promoted to Lanús’ first team just last summer, he’s racked up 36 appearances, showcasing his attacking prowess and defensive solidity. His Olympic Games performances further solidified his reputation, prompting Liverpool to act swiftly.
Despite Robertson’s current dominance, his age means Liverpool must plan ahead. Soler, priced at £13 million, represents a potential bargain for the Reds. However, convincing him to join knowing he may not get immediate game time could be a challenge. With interest from other top clubs, Liverpool will need to move fast to secure this promising talent.
