The Brazilian ace would be an exceptional addition to Liverpool’s squad.
Worrying news for Reds fans broke today, regarding Adam Lallana’s injury, with the Daily Mail (print edition on August 5th, page 106) reporting that the England international is expected to miss at least a couple of months with a thigh problem.
With this in mind, Jürgen Klopp will surely be looking to bolster his attacking options over the course of the next month, and the German should consider intensifying his interest in PSG star Lucas Moura, who could be available for as little as £26.5 million this summer, according to French media outlet Le Parisien.

The Brazilian ace possesses quality of the very highest level, and would undoubtedly add a certain level of potency to Liverpool’s attacking play, what with his direct playing style and technical expertise in and around the penalty box.
The 24-year-old can play anywhere along the front-line, and would not only provide cover during Lallana’s injury, but would also offer stiff competition for the likes of Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Philippe Coutinho.
Lucas plays with a certain kind of maturity that defies his still relatively tender years, and his experience of playing at the very highest level, for such a sustained period of time with the French giants, would bring a much-needed winning mentality to Klopp’s side.
He has already made 223 appearances for PSG in all competitions, scoring 45 goals and chipping in with 47 assists, which represents a rather impressive return for a winger.
In today’s day and age, with the current inflated state of the transfer market, £26.5 million represents fantastic value for a player of the Brazilian’s calibre.
And Klopp should not hesitate to bring him to Anfield.
