Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes and his recruitment team are working hard towards identifying targets as they prepare for the winter and summer transfer windows.
The Merseyside giants are committed to signing young players who are ready to get into Arne Slot’s first team and are prepared to pay top dollar to get the starlets they want.
Liverpool have already been linked with several young talents but the club are still assessing their options and are pushing towards identifying the players they want.
The club are still in talks with Mohamed Salah over a new deal but Liverpool are keen to make sure that they bring in his long-term replacement even if he signs on fresh terms.
The Reds have identified a teenage prodigy in Portugal who could come in and eventually go on to replace Salah in the team in the coming years.
The club register interest in teenage prodigy
Geovany Quenda is the latest teenage sensation who is making waves in the Portuguese top flight this season with Sporting Lisbon.
The 17-year-old has established himself in the Sporting squad, starting eight of their first ten league games and scoring an assist against Manchester City this week in the Champions League.
His performances have earned the interest of Liverpool who are keen to take him to Anfield sooner rather than later.
According to TBR Football, the Merseyside giants have made it clear to Sporting Lisbon that they like him and want to sign the player.
However, Sporting Lisbon have made it crystal that he is not available for sale unless a club decide to trigger his €100m release clause in his contract.
Can you name the club Liverpool sold these players to?
No club are yet to show the propensity of paying such a figure for the teenage winger but he is being looked at by several top teams.
Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham and Chelsea are all interested in getting their hands on Quenda.
Sporting Lisbon do not want to cash in on the teenager and will wait for his value to rise before a decision on his future is taken.
Liverpool will continue to monitor his progress while checking on Sporting’s willingness to do business for his sale in the near future.
