Liverpool have once again pushed back at rumours they are interested in signing Sporting Lisbon midfielder Matheus Nunes.
Nunes has been continually linked with a move to Anfield throughout the summer and the reports were lent some extra weight after events at the weekend. Thiago Alcantara limped out of Liverpool’s 2-2 draw against Fulham on Saturday and has since been ruled out for around six weeks, handing Jurgen Klopp a problem.
Nunes is a highly-rated 23-year-old central midfielder who would appear to fit the bill for what Liverpool require. He has a £51million release clause in his Sporting contract and has also been linked with Wolves this summer.
