When Brazilian media linked Liverpool with a £31 Million move Gremio attacker Luan just a mere three days before the transfer window shut it was a bit of a head scratcher. Luan had impressed at the Olympics as the host nation won the Gold medal and his performances caught the attention of  the Premier League...

Why Sadio Mane will lead to away day improvement
