Right back options

Alexander-Arnold could be phenomenal in our team. I doubt he’d come here and I know he’s not popular but his technique is insanely good.

Diomande and Fresneda are decent shouts as well. Frimpong would work if we’re moving to a wing back system but otherwise would probably struggle defensively.

Devyne Rensch is available on a free in the summer, like him. Also a huge fan of Lutrashel Geertruida, who moved to RB Leipzig in the summer just gone.
Tront would just be Cancello (football and non football wise) all over again. No ta. Though it would be a funny signing!
 
Frimpong
Balde
Malo Gusto
Frimpong – We could have triggered his release clause (which has now expired) a few months ago, so it’s clear we’re not interested.

Balde – He’s a LB, not a RB, and he’d rather be benched at Barcelona than move anywhere else.

Gusto – He’s on an 8-year contract. Unless Chelsea is willing to sell at a reasonable or discounted price, I don’t see us paying what they’d likely want for him.
 
Surprised at Porro, thought he’d be a Frimpong-type wingback but he’s actually pretty solid defensively too. Would cost a fortune though.
 
They are the best pacey options to replace Kyle Walker, otherwise Trent or Hakimi would be contract expiring options.

Plus he's not good enough
 
Hakimi's the option I'd personally go for. It's very odd that he seems to be running down his contract.
I keep saying it, but all people mention are his alleged "attitude" issues and r*** charges.

Hakimi is defensively solid, a good attacker, strong dribbler, and crosser, with an eye for goals/assists, and he has incredible pace! With one year remaining on his contract, we could get him on the cheap. Word was that he wanted out of PSG back when Mbappé, Neymar, and Messi were all there. I’m not sure if he still feels that way. PSG has prepared a contract extension as we speak, which he could sign any moment now—if he wants to stay at PSG.

the sexual assault charges should be a deal-breaker for any player

Any criminal charge should be a deal-breaker for any player, as long as it’s proven. If he’s found guilty, he will receive whatever punishment the law deems fit. Let’s stop assuming guilt until proven otherwise.
I hope we took something from the Mendy case. As for Hakimi, the law will sentence him if he is found guilty. Let’s reserve our judgments until the law has reached a verdict.

And no, I’m not saying our club should take a chance on him with such charges looming over his head.
