Liverpool edging closer to Inacio

The Sporting CP central defender has been watched by the Reds for a while, and now they have the opportunity to finally sign him, according to Sports Zone (via Sport Witness).

With a 60 million euro (£51.3 million) release clause in his contract, Inacio has been offered to the Merseysiders by the Lions.

One of the top centre backs in the Primeira Liga, the 22-year-old has been outstanding for Sporting, who are now leading the standings in their league.

Manager Ruben Amorim has found great success with Inacio, and the Portuguese coach is a strong contender to succeed Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool.
