Virals: Journalist names trio of clubs interested in Ben Davies

Liverpool defender Ben Davies is reportedly attracting interest from a host of clubs this summer. 

The 25-year-old centre-back was signed in February as an emergency option with Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip all ruled out for the duration of the season. 

However, the ex-Preston ace was deemed surplus to requirements as Rhys Williams, Nat Phillips and Ozan Kabak saw out the campaign for Jurgen Klopp’s side. 

According to Daily Mail journalist Dominic King on Twitter, Celtic, Bournemouth and Sheffield United are all keen on Davies. 

Having only recently made a first outing for the Reds in a pre-season friendly clash against FC Wacker Innsbruck, allowing the Englishman to leave before making a competitive debut would be a bold statement. 

READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT

Signed for £1.6million (Goal) on a contract until 2025 amidst strong interest from Celtic, Liverpool must believe the club can strike a profit on their expenditure. 

Realistically as Van Dijk, Gomez and Matip return to the fold – on top of the arrival of Ibrahima Konate – Davies is going to struggle to get a look in once again during 2021/22. 

Valued at £2.7million (Transfermarkt), Michael Edwards will be keen to extract a healthy fee from the clubs interested.
