Speaking to CaughtOffside, Jones said Liverpool were looking for a defender of Hincapie’s profile, but did not think a transfer would materialize in the upcoming month. Jones Believes Ball-Playing Center-Back Is High On Liverpool’s Wishlist Manchester City, Liverpool, and Chelsea have been credited with an interest in the Ecuadorian, with Jones suggesting the player would be a great addition to the Reds’ squad. He has played in 16 games in all competitions this season, claiming an assist.Īccording to reports, Hincapie’s performances have made him quite a sought-after player, especially in the English Premier League. Hincapie, who can play both as a center-back and a left-back, has been one of the standout performers in Alonso’s team. No other team in the Europa League won all six of their group-stage matches this season. Alonso’s high-fliers have climbed to the top of the Bundesliga rankings and qualified to the Round of 16 of the UEFA Europa League as Group H winners. Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen have emerged as the only unbeaten team across the top five European leagues in the 2023-24 season. Hincapie Has Been In Excellent Form This Season Jones, however, believes the Bundesliga outfit are unlikely to sell the 21-year-old versatile defender in the winter transfer window. Renowned reporter Neil Jones has credited Liverpool with an interest in Bayer Leverkusen defender Piero Hincapie.
