This afternoon, Bayern officially announced the signing of Colombia winger Dias from Liverpool. It is reported that the income brought to Liverpool by the transfer will be invested in the club's transaction to introduce forward Isaac.

But at the same time, it seems that the Reds' current lineup needs more urgently in the central defender position.

After Kanssa transferred to Leverkusen for 35 million pounds, there were only three central defenders in Liverpool, Van Dijk, Connate and Gomez, who also ended his Asian tour early due to an Achilles tendon injury.

In a friendly match that lost to AC Milan 2-4, 23-year-old midfielder Heraffenberg played for 63 minutes as the starting center back. If the team needs it, he and Endo Kazuki can play guest roles in the central defender, but it is not a long-term solution after all.

According to previous reports, Liverpool's attempt to introduce Colville (renew with Chelsea), Yoro (join Manchester United) and Wyson (join Real Madrid) in recent years have not been successful. This summer, the Reds also had discussions on Crystal Palace defender Gee, but he is still in a stage of "staying interested".

With Van Dijk being 34 years old and Connate's contract renewal is suspected, and Gomez is frequently injured, perhaps Liverpool should focus more on adding to the depth of the central defender.
