Despite daily links between Liverpool and Sporting CP midfielder Matheus Nunes in Portugal, journalists on Merseyside have rubbished claims of a deal.
According to Lisbon-based publication Correio da Manha – the most widely circulated newspaper in Portugal – the club are preparing a bid for the 23-year-old. A name that has been regularly touted with a move to Anfield in recent weeks is Nunes, who has established himself as a key player for Sporting CP and earned eight caps for Portugal so far. That is despite Thiago being set to miss at least a month with a hamstring issue, leaving Fabinho, Jordan Henderson, James Milner, Naby Keita and Harvey Elliott as the regular options in the middle of the park.
