The 21-year old Brazilian winger as the new summer target for Liverpool.
Barcelona winger and bordeaux playmaker Malcom has emerged as a summer target for Jurgen Klopp’s side, according to the latest reports. The 21-year-old joined the Catalans in the summer but has found it hard to come by at the Nou Camp.
The Brazilian has three goals to his name all season for the Catalans but has just three starts, all of which came in the Copa del Rey. The reports also adds that Tottenham and a host of Chinese clubs are interested in the 21-year-old, however, the La Liga giants are unwilling to sell the winger unless he wants a move away.
The Brazilian winger could help Jurgen Klopp side to do more with those of attackers. The Reds don’t have enough quality cover for the forward line and the likes of Daniel Sturridge and Divock Origi haven’t impressed enough in the limited minutes they have received this season.
The English striker is out of contract at the end of the campaign, and the Reds are thin on senior attackers after selling Dominic Solanketo Bournemouth in the winter window. Although Malcom hasn’t done a lot at the Nou Camp, he could be a decent option to have on the bench. The Reds were extremely busy in the previous summer transfer window, and it will be interesting to see what our plans are once the season ends.
