Carragher: If Liverpool signs Wilz, Sobosloy will change from No. 10 to No. 8

May 20th Liverpool legend Carragher said that if Liverpool signs Wilz, Sobosloy's position will retreat.

Liverpool hopes to compete with Bayern this summer, and Wilz has played 197 games at Leverkusen, of which 155 are the No. 10 midfielder. Liverpool mainly plays this position this season, but Carragher believes that Sobosloy can also play in a further position.

Carragher said: "I always think Sobosloy has the ability to play in the midfield, especially the kind of energy he has. He performs better without the ball than with the ball. Liverpool is currently in close contact with a German player, who comes from Leverkusen. Wiltz? Yes, Liverpool is interested in him. Interestingly, if Liverpool signs Wiltz, Sobosloy's energy is also very important to Liverpool. Should he be allowed to play in the midfield and play in this game?"

In this round of the Premier League, Liverpool lost 2-3 to Brighton, and Sobosloy moved backwards in this game. Before the game, Carragher asked Liverpool coach Slott if Sobosloy will be fixed in a further back position in the future. Slott smiled and said, "Yes, yes, do I really need to say it? You know everything. Sobosloy played No. 8 in this game, Heraffenberg played No. 6 in the game, and Elliott was a bit ahead. Sobosloy thought his best position was No. 8, so it would be interesting to see how he performed in this position."
