Liverpool saw off competition from Chelsea for defender
20-year-old set to recover from injury in time for season
Jérémy Jacquet has officially completed his £60m move to Liverpool, with the defender signing a five-year contract at Anfield, plus the option of an extra year.
Liverpool beat Chelsea and Bayern Munich to the signature of the highly rated Rennes centre-half in January and on Wednesday confirmed the transfer has been completed subject to international clearance. The 20-year-old has cost an initial £55m with £5m payable in add-ons.
