Liverpool and Manchester United Target Newcastle Center-Back Malick Thiaw

Following their thrilling Champions League victory over Villarreal, Liverpool has reignited their efforts to bolster their defensive options. According to journalist Ekrem Konur, the Anfield club has renewed its interest in 25-year-old Newcastle United center-back Malick Thiaw, whose current contract runs until mid-2029 following a failed summer approach from Bayer Leverkusen.

In addition to the Merseyside club, Manchester United is also closely monitoring the German defender as they evaluate potential reinforcements for their backline. While the Magpies are expected to fend off any bids for their star player, both English giants could ramp up their pursuit in the upcoming transfer windows.
