Media watchLiverpool in four-way fight to sign one of the fastest centre-backs in Europe
Crystal Palace are braced for mounting interest in defender Maxence Lacroix following his recent breakthrough onto the international stage with France, and TEAMtalk can reveal that Liverpool are one of four clubs keen on his services.
The 25-year-old centre-back earned his first senior cap earlier this week, coming off the bench in France’s impressive 2-1 victory over Brazil — a moment that could prove pivotal in his career trajectory.
Lacroix, who has been clocked as the quickest centre-back in the Premier League this season at 35.39 km/h, is now firmly focused on forcing his way into France’s World Cup plans and is determined to end the season on a high note at Selhurst Park.
The former Wolfsburg defender is targeting success on both the international and club stage, with Palace still competing in the Conference League.
