Matheus Nunes to Liverpool links "nonsense" (This Is Anfield)

Sporting CP midfielder Matheus Nunes has been linked via Portuguese media in recent days, but those claims have been rubbished by a more reliable source.

Many of the links for Portuguese-based players, it must be said, are coming from Portugal, where perhaps agents are trying to drum up interest in their clients and using Liverpool’s recent business as a driver. The timing of this makes sense as both Naby Keïta and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s contracts will expire in a year’s time (although it’s likely that the former will renew at some point). Despite most good sources saying all summer that Liverpool will not do business in regards to looking at bringing in another midfielder, that hasn’t stopped the mill from churning out name after name.

Report: Liverpool To Begin 'Formal Negotiations' With Sporting CP ... (Sports Illustrated)

According to a report in Portugal, Liverpool are set to start 'formal negotiations' with Sporting CP over the transfer of midfielder Matheus Nunes.

Concerns around the midfield will need to be addressed by the next summer window at the latest, however, and there may very well be cause for the club to pursue more than just the one midfielder should one or both of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita’s contracts be allowed to expire. The Merseysiders had pursued both Jude Bellingham and Aurelien Tchouameni, losing out on the latter to Real Madrid and talks with the former’s club and representatives rebuffed. CM Jornal had attested that the Portuguese outfit would be prepared to accept a bid of £38.2m for the midfielder’s services.
