Liverpool, aiming to further strengthen its midfielders, is rumored to be moving to secure a defensive midfielder, showing interest in Fluminense’s Brazilian midfielder Andre, who won the Copa Libertadores’ top prize this season.
Meanwhile, Liverpool, who are also keen on strengthening their front line, are also tracking Matheus Reis, the club’s 16-year-old midfielder, and are planning to sign him along with Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester City, according to Calciomercato.
The Brazilian U-17 winger from Mexico has never played for the first team, but has scored one goal in nine games for the national team. The young gem, whose dribble penetration with a big stride is attractive, leaves opponents behind when he faces them, mainly on the left wing.
The player, who is said to include a £44 million release clause in his contract, also receives interest from Spain, in addition to Premier League teams.
He is considered one of the most promising young South American players of the future, along with Endrick, Vitor Roque and Kendry Paez.
Due to his age, a move to England is not going to happen right now. But will the young winger, with his high potential, make a big splash on the European stage in the future?
