Liverpool and Chelsea intensify efforts to sign the 18-year-old defender.

According to reports, Liverpool and Chelsea are interested in signing the gifted young defender Patrick Dorgu

According to Fichajes, the Lecce defender has attracted the interest of Premier League clubs with his performances in the Italian league and could prove to be a sound, long-term investment for both clubs.

Marc Cucurella, a former defender for Brighton who cost Chelsea a lot of money, has fallen short of Chelsea’s expectations since arriving at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea could definitely use more depth at left-back, as Ben Chilwell is currently the only dependable player on the team.
In the London club’s first team, Dorgu might compete with Chilwell as Chilwell’s backup.

Liverpool needs to find a good replacement for Andrew Robertson in the meantime.

Since joining the team from Hull City, the Scottish defender has excelled, but over the past 12 months, his performances have been patchy.

With Kostas Tsimikas’s lackluster performance, he could definitely use more opposition.

Both Premier League clubs would be making wise investments by signing Dorgu, but it is still unclear whether they will make a formal offer to do so.

Both teams appear to be working harder than ever to sign the 18-year-old, but it’s still unclear whether they can come to terms on a contract with Lecce.

The Italian team probably won’t be in a hurry to part with their prized prospect, but if a sizable offer is put forward, they might be persuaded.

As Jürgen Klopp’s risk demonstrates a clear plan A, Liverpool has a weapon more effective than Erling Haaland.

As evidenced by Jürgen Klopp’s ‘risk’ to start him against West Ham, Liverpool has a forward who is more productive than even the formidable Erling Haaland.

Since entering the Premier League, Erling Haaland has established the standard for goal scoring. But Liverpool and Jürgen Klopp have been working on a strong weapon of their own to counter Pep Guardiola’s concoction.

And throughout the course of this season, especially in the most recent week against LASK and West Ham United, that antidote has been effectively unleashed, time and time again.

Darwin Nunez has always been compared to Haaland from the moment he was signed.
These comparisons were inevitable given that both players joined England’s top two teams in the same summer.

However, it’s fair to say that only Haaland lived up to the expectations in the first season.
Nunez significantly underperformed compared to expectations based on his own standards.

However, it’s fair to say that only Haaland lived up to the hype in the first season.
Nunez significantly lagged behind what was expected of him by his own standards.

Thankfully, Rome wasn’t built in a day, and sometimes it takes time to integrate a forward—even one as productive as Nunez—especially in a system as exacting as Klopp’s gegenpressing one at Anfield.

It’s a good thing that Rome wasn’t built in a day because it can sometimes take time to integrate a forward, even one as productive as Nez, especially in a system as exacting as Klopp’s gegenpressing one at Anfield.

In a club, Nez often starts off slowly before exploding suddenly.
His first season at Benfica saw him score just 14 goals, but his second saw him light up the world.

Now, based on what he has demonstrated so far this season, it appears that history may be about to repeat itself.

Nez gave the impression that he was on a mission the moment he arrived in preseason.
In the preseason, he had a lot of goals and appeared to be a completely different, terrifying prospect.

Nunez has now continued in that form during the regular season.
The Uruguayan has already shown his clutchness numerous times this season, including with a crucial brace to turn the game around against Newcastle, a goal and an assist against Aston Villa, and a goal and another assist midweek against LASK.

But Klopp could have easily benched him against West Ham.
Starting him back-to-back in two games so soon after picking up an ailment during the international break was undoubtedly a risk.

But it turned out to be a risk worth taking.

The Uruguayan gave Liverpool yet another pivotal moment with his goal to give his team the lead. Nunez’s goal served as a significant catalyst for the game.

Nunez is more prolific than Haaland himself, who has so far “only” contributed a goal every 87 minutes on average at the club level.

Nunez is only three goals behind Haaland despite having played 463 more minutes than the Norwegian and having contributed to six goals overall.

In a Liverpool jersey, it has taken him some time to get going, but once Nunez finds his golden clutch, he has already shown at Benfica that he is impossible to stop.
Liverpool will be hoping that Anfield will follow this trend
