Liverpool and Calvin Ramsay stance detailed as Leeds United eye transfer
Liverpool defender aims to put injury hell behind him as Leeds United want to sign him in the January transfer window, according to Football Scotland.
The media outlet claimed on 18 January that despite an injury to Trent Alexander Arnold, the Reds want the Scotsman to go out on loan to continue his development.
The Daily Mail reported on 18 January that the Whites are considering bringing in the 20-year-old this month.
Risk
The 20-year-old right-back has had a challenging season at Preston North End, managing only two appearances after knee surgery and facing setbacks, including contracting COVID-19.
This suggests potential fitness concerns and a need for consistent match fitness.
Moreover, Ramsay's limited experience in senior football, coupled with his struggles to secure a regular place at Preston, raises questions about his readiness for the demands of the Championship.
The player's adaptation to the style and intensity of Leeds' play, under Daniel Farke's preferences, could take time.
Given Leeds' competitive aspirations, relying on a young and relatively untested player might not align with their immediate needs for a robust and experienced squad.
He'll be a cost-effective option but then they did go down that route with Djed Spence and his fitness issues proved to be a worry so the Whites will not want to repeat the same with another signing this season.
