Not just for next season. If Manchester United can get him then we can be sure that he will be the first choice down the line and it is likely that Erik ten Hag will implement a new formation with 3 defenders (3-4-1-2).
Naturally, Josko Gvardiol is targeted by many big clubs because he is one of the most prominent defenders during the 2022 World Cup tournament.
I'm sure Gvardiol will be tempted by many clubs interested in him although he is rumored to be in no hurry to leave the Red Bull Arena at least because Gvardiol is still under contract with RB Leipzing until 2027 since he was brought in from Dinamo Zagreb in 2021 and RB Leipzing also plans to keep Josko Gvardiol until the end of the season based on reports from several reliable sources.
Josko Gvardiol has an advantage when dueling in the air because he has an ideal body posture, so a defender like this is quite needed in the Premier League, because Premier League games tend to play balls from the wings, so the required player posture must be absolutely ideal, and have an advantage in aerial duels. While those percentages haven't proven to work, most of what I've seen in the League play this role.
Some of the media that I searched for, Josko Gvardiol has a desire to play at Liverpool, considering that this club is one that he has often followed since childhood, although this reason is not very strong and it seems that Liverpool are one step faster.
It doesn't matter if Josko Gvardiol has to choose and his choice wants to play at Liverpool as a club he has often followed since childhood. At Liverpool Gvordial will have to compete with Ibrahima Kounate and Gomez to convince Klopp to get a place in the main squad.
Unlike at Manchester United, if he is willing to join Old Trafford, then we can be sure he will get the main place because Maguire still hasn't found his best form of play with United.
As a professional player, Josko Gvardiol should consider playing minutes if he chooses to join a new club given his age to continue honing his skills as a defender which will be needed by Croatia at the EURO tournament to be held in Germany.
