As soon as Thiago Alcantara was confirmed as an injury casualty, most Liverpool fans panicked given the Spaniard's superb influence on this current Liverpool side. The Liverpool shape can commonly be predicted with a clear understanding of its structure. Thiago Alcantara has operated as the orchestrator and tempo setter in every game he’s played,...
Portuguese media have been linking Matheus Nunes with a move to Liverpool for most of the transfer window.
Correio da Manha still claim the Reds are preparing to make a move for the 23-year-old while Pedro Almeida posted a tweet today saying Liverpool are willing to pay €40million for the Brazilian-born Portugal international amid interest...
