Liverpool are looking in Portugal for long-term replacements for Virgil van Dijk, while Thiago Alcantara could be heading to Turkey for next to nothing…as they set about something of a rebuild at Anfield. There are plenty of things you would expect the Reds to have on their to-do list above ‘replace Virgil van Dijk’ butsays they are cracking on with the job of sourcing a long-term successor to the centre-back.
It seems they are focussing their search on Portugal, with Benfica’s Antonio Silva and Sporting Lisbon’s Goncalo Inacio both linked. Portugal international Silva has also been linked with Real Madrid who see the 19-year-old as an alternative target to RB Leipzig’s Josko Gvardiol. Inacio, 21, has impressed Liverpool scouts while playing on the left side of Sporting’s central defence, the same position Van Dijk occupies at Anfield.Rather more of a priority is Liverpool’s engine room, which means some of their current midfielders are likely to be ushered towards the exit.
One of Jurgen Klopp’s stars who could be on his way is Thiago Alcantara. Fenerbahce certainly hope so sinceThiago will be 32 next month and is due to enter the final year of his contract in the summer so Fenerbahce hope an offer worth just over £7million will be enough to sign the star who joined Liverpool in 2020 for £27million from Bayern Munich.
