This was confirmed by reporter Cesar Luis Merlo who claimed on his YouTube channel that the Mexican winger was very close to signing for Liverpool and that he wanted to be on the move in the January window.

Liverpool have FOUND Arne Slot his new James Milner

Girona's Miguel Gutierrez is a player Liverpool reportedly like. The Spaniard is a left-back and one playing an unconventional role against the Reds.

Gutierrez is a left-back. Sort of.
