Heya Eds! Do you know which left backs Liverpool looking at right now?
Thank you!

{Ed002's Note - Ricardo Pereira, and interest remains in Josh Tymon. Interest is likely gone in Sead Kolasinac.}

Thanks a lot for that!

Hi Eds, what is the reason behind interest disappearing on Kolasinac? Isn't his contract expiring and he is from Schalke, I would think and Matip would have a good partnership.

{Ed002's Note - Kolasinac is not a centre back Harry so I am not sure how Matip enters in to this. He is out of contract in the summer and a number of clubs spoke to Schalke about taking him in January - right now Schalke want him to agree a new contract, particularly given the serious injury to Baba Rahmann (who they had planned on buying in the summer) and the player wants to see what options are available. Whilst he can sign a pre-contract now and there is interest from the likes of Arsenal and Juventus - he will hang on until he can find out what the plans are at Bayern Munich.}

If Bayern are keen on Kolasinac, would it be safe to assume that either Bernat or Alaba would be moving on?

{Ed002's Note - Yes and there is interest in both.}

Any idea where Bernat or Alaba could be moving on to? Or should I perhaps take this to the European pages?

{Ed002's Note - It is nothing whatsoever to do with Liverpool.}

Fair enough Ed, posted it on the relevant page now :)

{Ed002's Note - And it has been answered.}

Isn't Ricardo more prominently a right sided full-back? Just curious as Clyne has apparently made noises about leaving previously. Not to sound old fashioned but I do think left sided players, especially full backs, should ideally be left footed.

Hello ed,
What about Tierney the Celtic full back. Have LFC looked at him?
Secondly regarding Ricardo Pereira
Is he the one on loan to buy deal at OG Nice?
Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - (a) No, but other Premier League sides are interested. (b) Porto are keen to sell Ricardo Pereira to raise summer funds and Nice have an option on the player at €25M which they are unlikely to pay. This opens the door for Inter but they already have a lengthy shopping list and he may not be a priority. Liverpool and Arsenal has watched him on more than one occasion whilst on loan at Nice this season.}

Do you rate him ed?

{Ed002's Note - I don't "rate" players.}

I rate him, very good player.

Hi ed, considering the OP I know this may be a stupid question, but are LFC looking at Pereira as a left or right back? Or both? He's apparently capable in left back but I do know his main position is right back. If he were signed as a left back I just don't know how out-of-position he would be.

{Ed002's Note - The player can play in either position so he won't be out of position.}
