Liverpool and Manchester United had scouts present to watch Givairo Read in action for Feyenoord at the weekend, sparking rumours of an interest.
According to Caught Offside, Liverpool and Manchester United are keen on Givairo Read ahead of the summer. The Premier League rivals had scouts watching the 18-year-old Dutch prodigy in action for Feyenoord, as there could be possibilities in the summer window.
Feyenoord has top prospects on their hands as promising young right back Givairo Read is making headlines with some of his performances this season. The 18-year-old Dutch prodigy has been impressive for the Rotterdam side this term, with some Premier League teams showing an interest ahead of the summer.
Liverpool and Tottenham are among those keen on reading ahead of the summer, as both sides are eager to sign a new right-back. He might not be the absolute first choice for the role, but they could incorporate him, given he’s already playing at the highest level at Feyenoord.
Liverpool and Manchester United had scouts present to watch Read in action as Feyenoord took on NAC at the weekend. The 18-year-old Dutch prodigy started the goalless draw and finished ninety minutes, as the observers might have had a long look at the promising talent.
It remains to be seen whether either side goes ahead and makes an approach, as both are indeed looking at a fresh option in the right-back slot. Liverpool are likely to see Trent Alexander-Arnold leave the club despite being offered a new deal last month, while Manchester United is looking to improve under Ruben Amorim, as their target is to bring someone who can occupy the wing-back position.
Liverpool and Manchester United are hunting for a new right-back
Liverpool are set to lose Alexander-Arnold, with Real Madrid looking increasingly likely as his new destination once his contract at Anfield expires in the summer. They have other names on their list, although they might view Conor Bradley as their first choice next season and have someone like Read as backup if it all goes to plan.
Manchester United, on the other hand, are still figuring out the right player to occupy their right wing-back slot for next season. They did sign Patrick Dorgu for the left-hand side, although Amorim does not want an out-and-out defender like Noussair Mazraoui to occupy the role, while there are links to Geovany Quenda, among others, ahead of the summer.
