According to ClubCall, the Reds are aiming to beat Manchester United to the signing of young Brazilian forward Malcolm.
Both sides are aiming to qualify for the Champions League this season with the race for the top four far more exciting than the chase for the title itself.
Ahead of next season, though, teams will want to improve to help catch up Chelsea and the young striker could be the ideal solution.
Club scouts have reportedly been at Bordeaux’s games to watch the youngster and there must be some hope that he could parallel Gabriel Jesus’ impact at Manchester City before he got injured.
There’d be question marks, of course, over whether he’d be good enough for the club given he’s not played at this level but he has already played in Europe and that should be a positive sign.
Worth a punt, Reds? Let us know below!
