Liverpool have confirmed the acquisition of Jérémy Jacquet. The deal was raced through ahead of the winter window’s deadline on Monday evening, yet Arne Slot will not be able to call upon the talented French defender until the summer.
Jacquet had been a notable target for Chelsea in January. Terms between the player and the Blues were reportedly struck but Rennes held firm on an asking price which exceeded the £56.3 million ($77.1 million) that Manchester City paid for Jérémy Doku in 2023. No arrangement could be found, opening the door for Liverpool to plan for the future.
