Liverpool are reportedly keeping close tabs on AC Milan forward Rafael Leao with the Portuguese international emerging on the radar at Anfield.
The 22-year-old become one of the most in-demand players across Europe’s biggest leagues on the back of a stellar run of form in the AC Milan shirt and Jurgen Klopp’s camp have been alerted ahead of this coming summer.
A report from the Italian news outlet Calciomercato has claimed that the Merseysiders, who remain on the hunt for reinforcements in the final third, are keen on launching a bid for Leao’s signature.
With both Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah set to turn 30 over the course of the campaign and as the latter’s future hangs in the balance amid the long drawn out contract standoff, Liverpool would be urged to scout the market for fresh blood.
Klopp brought in Columbia international Luis Diaz earlier this year in the January window for a big-money deal with the winger adjusting well to life in England’s top flight after making the move to Anfield from FC Porto.
