Liverpool monitoring 26-year-old Premier League defender’s situation, player could be signed for free

Liverpool are monitoring Tosin Adarabioyo’s situation at Fulham ahead of a potential move in the summer.

The centre-back’s contract expires at Craven Cottage at the end of the season and the 26-year-old is yet to agree an extension and could potentially be available on a free transfer, reports the Daily Mail.

Liverpool are in the market for a centre-back and Adarabioyo would be a cheap option to strengthen their squad, saving funds for other areas.

The Reds are likely to lose Joel Matip ahead of the 2024/25 campaign as the Liverpool defender is also out of contract, therefore, the Fulham player would replace the 32-year-old on Merseyside.

Adarabioyo has been at Fulham since 2020, having joined from Manchester City, and has become a key player in Marco Silva’s team.

The centre-back has played 16 matches this season in all competitions, netting just the once.

Being a free transfer, Liverpool would likely have competition for the 26-year-old in the summer but it remains to be seen if the Reds make a move.
