EXCL: Liverpool eyeing another surprise move of Ligue1 defender after Wataru Endo

Fulham and Liverpool are among the clubs interested in signing Rennes center-back Arthur Theate this summer.

The 23-year-old defender joined Rennes from Bologna last summer and had a successful debut season in France’s top division.

In the current transfer window, his performances at Rennes have aroused the interest of various clubs across Europe.

With less than two weeks remaining in the summer transfer window, Rennes could lose the Belgian defender this summer.

According to the print edition of the French sports daily L’Equipe, he is a target for both Fulham and Liverpool.

Fulham manager Marco Silva is seeking for defensive reinforcements before the transfer window closes, and Theate is one of the players on his radar.

Liverpool are also looking for a left-footed center-back, and the Rennes defender is someone they admire.

Rennes has not received a bid for Theate at the moment, but this could change when the transfer window closes.
