Liverpool: FSG forced the signing of the highly-rated centre-back in January.

Liverpool could make more signings as the January transfer window approaches, with a new claim suggesting Liverpool are trying to land a new high-priced defender. Do Liverpool need more new signings? The Reds have had one of the most remarkable summers of the Jurgen Klopp era, although they haven’t necessarily made a huge number of signings in different areas of the pitch. Instead, the Midfield alone has seen huge changes, with Fabinho, Jordan Henderson, James Milner, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain moving on. Meanwhile, Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo and Ryan Gravenberch came on to give Liverpool a fresh look in the middle of the park.
However, the Reds could probably do with a new centre-back, and preferably one who can play there as well as at left-back, and in Klopp’s new system, you can almost see the back three developing with Trent Alexander-Arnold. in midfield possession. With Ibrahima Konate, Joel Matip and Joe Gomez all slightly injured and Virgil van Dijk now 32, it seems dangerous to lead these four defensively for the rest of the season. goncalo-inacio-sporting-cp-premier-league
Will Liverpool sign Goncalo Inaccio in January? Speaking to Empire of the Kop, reporter Steve Kay claimed Liverpool could sign Sporting CP centre-back Goncalo Inacio in January after monitoring him during the summer transfer window.

“I definitely feel from the people I talk to that this is what they are driving. Negotiations have been ongoing since the end of the transfer window – I’m told they have been. So they are definitely pushing. “When a club puts a second release clause in a new contract, it usually means the player has been sold. When you hear people close to the club saying ‘this is Klopp’s man, he wants him’, you understand. I am me .I am never like that [in Moises] With Caicedo, I never had these conversations with sources about [Romeo] Lavia. “It was never like seeing Klopp in press conferences, you never got that feeling.”
Indeed, Inacio could be the perfect opportunity to join Liverpool and strengthen their defensive options in January, having already established himself as such an influential player for Sporting despite still being just 22 years old. The Portuguese sensation has made 126 appearances for his current club, including 11 goals. during that time and he combines quality on the ball with defensive dominance. He has completed 87% of his passes in the Primeira Liga this season, averaging 2.3 assists per game.
Footballer Jacek Kulig hailed Inaco as a “complete” player and he also scored twice in Portugal’s 9-0 win over Luxembourg earlier this week, showing he is now a key player at international level. The youngster can be seen as a long-term replacement for Van Dijk in the left-centre back role and immediately superior to Matip and Gomez, improving the squad depth at Klopp’s disposal.
