As reported by Portuguese outlet Record and relayed by LFC Transfer Room, Liverpool sent scouts once again to watch Goncalo Inacio in action for Sporting CP in his side’s 4-0 thrashing of Midtjylland in the Europa League.
Just recently, it was claimed that Jurgen Klopp’s side were scouting the 21-year-old ‘phenom’ during his side’s league clash against Porto.
But it seems as if Liverpool are not planning to give up on the potential arrival of Goncalo Inacio anytime soon, as they sent scouts to watch their transfer target do what he does best against Midtjylland in the Europa League.
Liverpool sent scouts again to watch Goncalo Inacio vs Midtjylland in Europa League clash
The Portuguese centre-back has been linked with moves to Paris Saint-Germain and Newcastle United in the past, and remains one of Europe’s most coveted young defenders.
It seems Liverpool are aware of that as they sent scouts again to watch Goncalo Inacio against Midtjylland in the Europa League, as relayed by LFC Transfer Room.
Furthermore, it has been mentioned that if the Reds aim to secure the services of Sporting’s prized asset, they will have to shell out a fee towards his £39.7 million release clause to sign him.
Matip & Gomez successor?
The reason why both Joel Matip and Joe Gomez have been named is because the pair have been a shadow of their former selves, and the youngster is also a right-sided centre-back like them.
Liverpool seem to certainly recognise that on the face of things, as they have sent scouts not once but twice to study how Goncalo Inacio fits into their side against Midtjylland in the Europa League.
Now, only time will tell which player the talent come into replace, if the move gets over the line in the summer.
