Liverpool are interested in Levi Colwill from Chelsea this summer but a deal looks unlikely. If he stays at Stamford Bridge, the Red Devils could hunt for Gonçalo Inácio.

Jürgen Klopp has bolstered his weakest division so far this summer, with Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai already signed to modernize Liverpool's engine room. The German is in dire need of a midfield boost ahead of the new season, and he has certainly addressed that concern.
It remains to be seen what happens next on the Reds' agenda, but Klopp remains interested in Chelsea's Levi Colwill (via Football.London), who has just helped England win the European Championship under 21 with Curtis Jones and Harvey Elliott. The Blues centre-back has a lot of potential and he is only 20 years old, which is why his signature could be difficult to secure in the coming weeks.
Chelsea are hoping to keep Colwill this summer, and that desire is understandable given his local status, age and what he could become when his prime years arrive. Currently, Liverpool do not have a left-footed central defender, with Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Ibrahima Konate and Joel Matip all favoring the right foot. Colwill is one of the few lefties on the market to tick many of Klopp's boxes. He has excellent ball control, is physically good, is strong in the air and can perfectly fit into the new 3-2-5 formation seen at Anfield since early April, when the Reds needed a centre-back. wide. The rest is for balancing purposes.
In the left-back at the Etihad Stadium, Pep Guardiola has Aymeric Laporte and Nathan Aké. Mikel Arteta has Gabriel Magalhães and Jakub Kiwior at Arsenal, and Erik ten Hag has Lisandro Martínez at Manchester United. Newcastle United have Sven Botman, who joined 12 months ago, and Aston Villa recently agreed to sign Pau Torres from Villarreal, another left-footed player. Colwill would be Liverpool's way of filling the obvious void, but if he is unavailable this summer, Gonçalo Inácio could be the player to look for, and the Reds know and appreciate him, according to AS. of Spain. The Portuguese defender, although only 21 years old, is quietly asserting himself as one of the best players in his homeland.
The young star from Lisbon ranked second in Portugal's entire Primeira Liga in terms of improved assists last season, behind the sole midfielder Porto Otávio, who was once linked with a move to Anfield. via ECHO). Inácio scored a total of 238, establishing himself as the highest-ranked defender by some distance.
These numbers provide a glimpse of him as a player, as he is very relaxed and calm on the ball, much like Colwill. Inácio meets Liverpool's criteria of being left-footed, and he seems to have the skills to take on the role Andy Robertson has taken on recently, a left-back who sometimes has to play at centre-back.
What's even more interesting is that Inácio has a release clause included with his contract. Liverpool have taken advantage of this convenient 'loophole' twice this summer, with Mac Allister and Szoboszlai both viable due to their release clauses.
According to the Portuguese newspaper Jornal de Noticias, Inácio's clause is $51 million (£40 million/€45 million), which seems like a fair amount in today's volatile market. That's a price tag that could completely solve Klopp's left-footed space, but the Reds are unlikely to activate it until Colwill make an offer for their potential players.
