Under Jurgen Klopp, the strongest front three has largely been dismantled, leaving only Egyptian international Mohamed Salah. The winger, still the team’s ace, has been keenly watched by clubs in the Middle East, and a move this summer is not out of the question.
Liverpool, looking for a ready-made winger or forward to replace him, have a list of young attackers from Europe and South America that they will try to acquire in the next transfer window. Meanwhile, they are also keen to strengthen their academy and are looking at players with extraordinary potential.
According to The Express, Liverpool are keeping a close eye on the development of 16-year-old Real Madrid U-19 midfielder Paulo Iago and could make a move for him in the near future.
In addition, Diogo Jota, Darwin Nunez and others have pointed out that their links with Gestifute, the agent company represented by Jorge Mendes, could help.
The central midfielder, whose talent is highly regarded alongside Lamine Yamal, who, despite being 16 years old, is also making great progress with Barcelona and the Spanish national team, has made a difference in Real Madrid’s under-category and is a regular in the Spanish Under-17 squad.
Only in the Premier League, where foreign players under the age of 18 are banned due to the Brexit agitation, it is not possible to pull out of the Spanish capital right now. Nevertheless, they will continue to monitor his development and may make a move for him when he turns 18.
What sort of career will the midfielder, a potential Spanish treasure, have?
