The reds favourites to sign highly-rated 22-year-old defender as rival club pull out of deal
According to SportBILD, the club are running the rule over highly-rated 22-year-old Portuguese defender, Goncalo Inacio.
The outlet note that Liverpool are now favourites to land the player, whilst TeamTalk named Man United as pulling out of the running because of financial constraints – given that Inacio will cost the full amount of his release clause (€60m/£52.3m) for any interested parties.
With only nine goals conceded so far, the Anfield outfit can already boast one of the most miserly defences in the English top-flight.
Inacio will therefore need to hit the ground running if he were to join Liverpool in January.
A left-sided centre-back that is, apparently, comfortable with the ball at his feet and playing out from the back, he would arguably be a perfect partner for captain, Virgil van Dijk, so it’s understandable why the Reds are seemingly going ‘all in.’
