Knee's and deadlifts

I recently noticed that my right knee will slightly go inward when doing DL's. I dropped my weight down to 70lbs from 100lbs to really focus on form, and it still bends inward. I'm pushing through the heels etc... Anyone else have this problem and were able to fix it?

Edit: I'm dumb and read that as squats. Little less terrifying as deadlifts.
Gotta consciously keep the knees in line and no shame decreasing the weight even more until you feel good with form0 -
do it with a broom stick if you have to till you get it right.0

Push your knee out so it tracks over your toes. It caving in is a weakness.
If your gym has a band you can do side steps with it just under your knees like a grab, or do it in squats, or do it during the DL with not much weight that you are DL.
You will get use to the exercise but only if you focus on keeping the knee out
