One of the new gems that have emerged in the French Ligue 1 this season is undoubtedly Issa Diop, a 21-year-old defender from Toulouse. Despite his youth, he has established himself as a regular starter in his current squad, accumulating 26 matches (2 goals) in this season.
The center-back has caught the attention of clubs like FC Barcelona, who, along with Arsenal and Tottenham, have been following his steps. His 194 cm height is particularly striking, and he has proven to be a reliable defender with great physical qualities.
Obviously, we would always have to wait and see how he responds to the jump to a club with higher demands. However, for the moment, he continues to attract interested suitors looking to secure his services for the upcoming season.
According to a recent article in Triball football, there is now a new contender in the race to sign him. Liverpool is the team that is interested in the Frenchman, as they are looking to strengthen their defense for the upcoming campaign.
