Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United tracking Willian Pacho

Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United are reportedly monitoring Willian Pacho at Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt.

According to a report by German outlet BILD, several Eintracht Frankfurt players are becoming targets for top clubs across Europe. One of them is Willian Pacho, with Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United tracking his progress. Meanwhile, the Bundesliga club will demand around €60 million to part ways with him.

Who is Willian Pacho?

Willian Pacho has established himself as one of the best young defenders in the Bundesliga since joining Eintracht Frankfurt. The Ecuadorian international spent his formative years in his homeland before graduating from the Independiente del Valle youth division. Meanwhile, his first adventure in Europe came with Royal Antwerp.

The 22-year-old spent 18 months at the Belgian club before joining Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer. He has turned out 28 times thus far for the Bundesliga club, becoming a mainstay at the back for Die Adler. Meanwhile, Willian Pacho’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs.

Recent reports linked the South American defender with Real Madrid. Premier League bigwigs are also keen on signing the youngster. The update from BILD has suggested that Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United are interested in securing the services of Willian Pacho.

Premier League Calling?

Arsenal’s interest in the Ecuadorian international is understandable. With Jakub Kiwior facing an uncertain future at the Emirates, the Eintracht Frankfurt centre-back is a viable target for Arsenal. As for Liverpool, the Reds have shown interest in several central defenders, including Tosin Adarabioyo.

Virgil van Dijk’s future is reportedly uncertain. In addition, the Dutchman and Joel Matip are on the wrong side of 30. So, it behoves Liverpool to invest in a centre-back. Meanwhile, Manchester United will likely lose Raphael Varane in the summer transfer window. So, Willian Pacho can be his long-term replacement at Old Trafford.

Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt will demand around €60 million to part ways with the 22-year-old. While the valuation seems excessive, the youngster has the potential to justify the investment. So, it will be interesting to see if Arsenal, Liverpool, or Manchester United sign him this summer.
