Djylian N'Guessan ‘to join’ Liverpool, Ligue 1 loan needed

The deal is not yet final. Liverpool must arrange a Ligue 1 loan until 2027 because their international loan quota has been reached.

He needs top-flight minutes to accumulate work permit points, so regular game time will be a key part of the plan.

Liverpool view the teenager as a development prospect in the Hugo Ekitike mould.
