Liverpool has route to two €60 million Portugal signings – It’s up to Reds to chose and move.
With Liverpool interested in Sporting defenders Gonçalo Inácio and Ousmane Diomande, it appears that the Lions are preparing for their likely departures in the summer. According to the newspaper Record, the Lisbon club is in talks to recruit Anderlecht centre-back Zeno Debast. They are reported to be in ‘pole position’ for the signing and have already produced a contract for him. Sporting have a fantastic defense with Inácio and Diomande, and the attention from Liverpool and other clubs is precisely why they’ve been seeking for new players in that position.
According to the Record, the Reds have expressed interest in both defenders. It is stated that they have the Portuguese player’referenced’ and have been scouting the Ivorian. Inácio has a €60 million release clause, and while Diomande’s is €80 million, A Bola reported today that the Lions would take between €50 million and €60 million for him. With Sporting ready to sell, Liverpool must now come up with a credible bid for any of them. And they must act quickly, because Chelsea, Juventus, Newcastle United, and Arsenal have all been connected with the duo.
