According to Notis Chalaris – a journalist close to Olympiacos – Liverpool admire Aguibou Camara and would like to sign him.
What’s the story?
Well, the journalist was previewing Atalanta’s Europa League meeting with Olympiacos for Tutto Mercato Web when he made the claim.
Chalaris said: “Aguibou Kamara is one of the players who can invent the game out of nothing. He is exceptionally talented and makes a big difference in the squad, that’s why big teams like Liverpool and Milan like him.”
This revelation should excite Liverpool fans.
Camara is a seriously bright prospect, who has already amassed an incredible amount of first-team experience at the age of 20.
The Guinea international – who is rated at £20m – is a regular starter for Olympiacos, having made 30 appearances in all competitions this season.
In those outings, Camara has scored six goals and provided five assists.
The youngster also appeared at the Africa Cup of Nations in January, where he played alongside Naby Keita.
Liverpool should sign Aguibou Camara and loan him out
As things stand, Jürgen Klopp has too many midfield options to accommodate Camara and give him a suitable amount of game time.
However, with AC Milan also sniffing around the Guinean wonderkid, the Reds need to act.
In our view, Liverpool should move to sign Camara now, and loan him back to Olympiacos or another top-flight side.
With players like Thiago, Fabinho, Jordan Henderson, Harvey Elliott, Keita, and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Camara cannot expect to walk into the starting XI.
If he keeps performing the way he is, that £20m valuation is only going to soar, so he may never be as cheap as he is now.
Keep an eye on this saga, as we can’t see Camara staying at Olympiacos much longer if he keeps shining like he is.
