Youri Baas, currently with Ajax, is the latest name linked with a potential switch to Liverpool. The defender could become a key signing should the move materialise, as the club seeks to strengthen in a key area of the pitch. Liverpool are still pushing to finalise terms. However, Real Madrid are still watching closely and may return with offers of their own. Liverpool's back line has been a real strength this season, conceding just 1.17 goals per game (7 in 6). Youri Baas would be expected to slot into that unit and hold his own in an already solid setup. Speculation continues to connect Liverpool with Sam Beukema, Mickey van de Ven and Adam Wharton while no fresh rumours surround Ajax. Want to see how the story develops?
