3 midfielders Liverpool should look to sign in January

Ruben Neves

Liverpool have been monitoring the progress of Porto midfielder Ruben Neves at times this season, and have sent scouts to watch him in action in the Portuguese top-flight.

The 19-year-old is already a Portuguese international, having played for his country twice in 2015, and is highly-rated in his home country.

The young defensive midfielder broke into the first team back in 2014, when he was just 17, and has since played 51 times in the league for Porto, netting twice.

Although he hasn’t featured as readily in this campaign, Liverpool are thought to be impressed with the youngster, whose positional awareness and vision are particular strengths.

With Liverpool still shipping a few too many goals, Klopp may want to shore up the middle of the park, and Neves could be able to do just that.
