Liverpool's Summer Transfer Target, Jeremy Jacquet, Suffering from a Serious Shoulder Injury
The young defender, who was set to join Liverpool for a hefty £60 million fee, had to be substituted in the 69th minute during Rennes' match against Lens on Saturday. The injury occurred just five days after he completed his medical with the club. Rennes manager Habib Beye confirmed that Jacquet's injury is serious, and he will require further assessment.
Jacquet's commitment to Rennes was evident in his statement, where he expressed his desire to help the team conclude the season on a high note. However, the injury setback has dealt a blow to Rennes' European qualification hopes, as they now face a challenging road ahead.
Liverpool, on the other hand, is dealing with its own defensive crisis. With just four defenders available for selection ahead of their upcoming match against Manchester City, the team is in a race against time to secure Champions League qualification. The injury curse that has plagued the Reds' defense this season now extends to their potential new signings.
The article concludes by highlighting the importance of timely recovery for Jacquet and the need for Liverpool to maintain their pace in the race for Champions League qualification.
