Liverpool's anticipated January spending spree could start with a defender, according to reports.
The Reds have been tentatively linked with a move for highly-rated Benfica centre-back Antonio Silva. But Portuguese outlet A Bola is now claiming that Liverpool's interest is 'concrete' and that 'firm talks' will be held with the Eagles after the World Cup.
The 19-year-old is currently in Qatar with Portugal, making one appearance so far in the final group stage match against South Korea.
