Wednesday’s news from planet Liverpool includes renewed interest in a Brazilian you might recognise and more rumours about our Egyptian King, annoyingly!
Reds ‘haven’t parked’ Andre
Liverpool may have made four midfield signings over the summer, but one of the targets from that window remains on the horizon.
Andre was linked to Anfield at various points before the 2023/24 season got underway, but his progress in the Copa Libertadores with Fluminense ultimately hampered those negotiations.
The Reds failed in their attempts to land defensive midfielders Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia before eventually turning to Wataru Endo from Stuttgart.
Endo has started just one Premier League game since his arrival, with Alexis Mac Allister being the man who has predominantly operated in the No. 6 position.
The Liverpool Echo‘s Ian Doyle has indicated that Liverpool “have not forgotten” about Andre, nor have they “haven’t “parked their interest” in the player, opening the door for a January pursuit.
It currently appears that Jurgen Klopp could use another option in that area and there may prove to be a reason for waiting an extra six months to land the 22-year-old.
