Liverpool sent a scout to watch Sporting Lisbon's clash with Porto as they eye young centre-half Goncalo Inacio.
The Sporting defender has enjoyed a rapid rise and is attracting plenty of interest. The Reds sent someone to watch him in the flesh and, after seeing him up close, a move for the 21-year-old is now being considered, according to Correio da Manhã.
Inacio has a €45m release clause, but Sporting may be open to other offers. Despite their recent domestic success the Portuguese outfit look set to miss out on the Champions League as they currently sit fourth. That will have financial implications that could see them cash in on their major assets.
