According to reports, Liverpool and Manchester City are interested in Chelsea star Malo Gusto, who has been one of the Premier League’s most reliable right-backs in recent months after moving from Lyon two years ago.

This could mean that Trent Alexander-Arnold needs to be replaced at Anfield.
With four straight victories and the most goals scored in the league, the Blues are presently ranked second in the Premier League.
With players like Gusto playing a significant role in their 12th and sixth-place finishes under Graham Potter and Mauricio Pochettino in the last two seasons, there’s a good probability.
However, Liverpool has reportedly expressed interest, which might put an obstacle in the plans.
According to Si Phillips’ report, Gusto is attracting interest from both Liverpool and City, reports Give Me Sport.
Alexander-Arnold’s contract with Liverpool is scheduled to expire next summer, and Real Madrid has been linked to a free transfer for the star.
Although they have Conor Bradley as a backup, the Reds may try to boost their roster if the England star decides to leave for La Liga because there isn’t anybody else on the right-flank who can attack.
With Kyle Walker having a terrible season as his career starts to wane and Rico Lewis filling in in midfield to help cover for Rodri’s season-ending injury, City has struggled at right-back this season and needs new players at that position.
