Liverpool are continuing to explore their midfield options with Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Matheus Nunes under consideration.
The Portugal international only joined Wolves last summer in a £44m deal and has played 14 times so far in the Premier League. However, Nunes has only completed 90 minutes once since September, turning out for the Midlands side in last week's defeat to Manchester United.
Liverpool 's interest in Nunes has been described as 'long standing' and the Reds did assess the merits of the 24-year-old last term during his final season with Sporting Lisbon in Portugal's Primeira Liga.
