As the transition to Jurgen Klopp’s second administration continues, Liverpool is seeing a growing number of South American players. Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, and Alexis Mac Allister have joined the club in the last two years, and the number of Spanish speakers is increasing.
Liverpool, such as it is, seems to be paying attention to Brazil among the South American countries. According to Ben Jacobs, sports journalist, they are actively scouting in Brazil and said it is an attractive market for many clubs.
“Gabriel Moscardo is looking likely to join PSG, who are making progress on a deal. Moscardo and Corinthians don’t really want a January exit, but that won’t prevent a transfer if the 18-year-old is signed then loaned back.”
“Luis Campos has already confirmed Moscardo is on PSG’s radar. At the time of writing nothing is done, but PSG have been optimistic since late November.”
“Chelsea actually had a bid for Moscardo rejected over the summer, and they are getting a bit of a reputation for trying for pretty much every top Brazilian in the industry.”
“Liverpool have also been out scouting thoroughly in Brazil recently. It’s a priority market right now for many top clubs.”

Liverpool, which is also reported to be interested in Sao Paulo defender Lucas Beraldo and others, may welcome a new wind from Brazil. However, it cannot be denied that the competition for the player will be fierce.
