"According to L'Equipe, it could even be that Jacquet misses the start of Liverpool's preparations for the new season, as he could be about for six months as a worst-case scenario. The Athletic reported on Liverpool pursuing the Frenchman in January, though he's remained with Rennes for the rest of this season."
"As previously also reported by L'Equipe, Jacquet has a shoulder injury that has required surgery. Jeremy Jacquet in action for Rennes This now means the 20-year-old could be out for anywhere between four and six months, so it's highly unlikely he'll be back in time for pre-season with Liverpool."
"Even if Jacquet is relatively inexperienced at the highest level, he's shown tremendous potential during his time at Rennes so far. This prompted Liverpool to make a move for him in January, and he was also strongly linked with Chelsea by Give Me Sport and others."
Liverpool have agreed to sign 20-year-old French defender Jeremy Jacquet from Rennes in the summer transfer window. However, Jacquet is recovering from shoulder surgery requiring four to six months of rehabilitation, likely causing him to miss pre-season and potentially delaying his debut until September. Despite his inexperience at the highest level, Jacquet has demonstrated significant potential at Rennes and was also pursued by Chelsea. Liverpool targeted him to address defensive concerns this season, having conceded 39 Premier League goals in 29 matches. With Virgil van Dijk showing age-related decline and Ibrahima Konate's contract nearing expiration, Jacquet represents an important long-term investment in the club's defensive future.
