The 30-year-old remains first choice at Anfield under Arne Slot but is struggling to re-capture the form that made him such a vital component of the team when Jurgen Klopp was manager.

Kostas Tsimikas has done well when he has deputised for the Scotland captain, but at 28, he is not seen as a long-term solution to fill the spot, with there also being some doubts about his consistency defensively.

Whilst Milos Kerkez appears to be on the radar of the Anfield hierarchy, Girona's Miguel Gutierrez could offer an interesting alternative to the Bournemouth defender.

That's according to Caught Offside (via Football Espana), who claim that the 23-year-old is on Liverpool's shortlist as well as being of interest to Real Madrid and Manchester United.

The Spanish outlet also claims that the 23-year-old has a release clause of €35million. He would, however, be available for just €8million to Los Blancos, who have a buyback clause, although they appear to be more focussed on Bayern Munich's Alphonso Davies.

A sale outside of Spain is stated as being Girona's favoured option, and as a result, it is suggested that they may be willing to negotiate on the release clause amount to ensure that happens if they lose hope of retaining his services.
