Liverpool's defence improved significantly in the last couple of months and Joe Gomez is crucial in turning the Reds' defence around.

The 21-year old is a versatile defender who is capable of playing anywhere across the backline. He has a great aerial ability and is a good reader of the opposing attacks, also, he can play with the ball at his feet.

Gomez completed 473 passes in the Premier League this season with an impressive passing accuracy of 87.3 percent. He also made 24 clearances and won 67 percent of his tackles.

The young English defender is one of the best young defenders in the world right now and will be a perfect long-term replacement for the ageing Pique. However, the Blaugana need to offer a huge amount of money to tempt Liverpool for selling their talented youngster.
