Liverpool have been linked with a number of top players and reports suggest that Goncalo Inacio’s priority will be to strengthen his defence.
Liverpool could make a new signing this month, with the Portugal international on their wish-list, according to an exclusive article from Caught Offside. News – Sources said Sporting are keen to keep hold of their prized asset, but the Reds could use the £51.6m (€60m) buyout clause. According to the current Diario de Noticias, Inacio could leave when his £51.6m release clause is triggered in the winter transfer window.
Liverpool and Sporting CP are top of their respective leagues and will be keen to keep hold of their star players this month.The Reds have conceded just 18 goals in the Premier League this season and have the best defensive record. On the other hand, Anfield, without captain and defensive leader Virgil van Dijk last night, kept a clean sheet and beat Arsenal 2-0 at home, with Konate leading the way.
So while things are looking good for now, Liverpool will have to plan for the future as Matip is injured and could leave in the summer. Moreover, Virgil is not getting any younger and turns 33 in July. Therefore, a young and talented centre-back needs to be recruited and Inacio is a key target for top European clubs. Do you think Liverpool should offer £51.6m for Goncalo Inacio this month?
