Goncalo Inacio, a brilliant Portuguese defender, was on service for his country when Liverpool dispatched scouts to observe him.
The name Goncalo Inacio has been circulating in the football world for a time, and Liverpool is only one of the teams that have been connected to a move for him. His performances for Portugal and Sporting CP have been similar.
Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister, Ryan Gravenberch, and Wataru Endo were all signed by Tottenham over the summer while players like Fabinho and Jordan Henderson were allowed to depart the team.
The guy who previously came very close to winning the Ballon d’Or is not the same as Virgil van Dijk. Joel Matip had outstanding performances and then utter failures. Right-back Joe Gomez appears to be performing better than center-back.
However, Ibrahima Konate is a fascinating individual. This season, everyone anticipated that he would assume the role of starting centre defender, but owing to injuries and other factors, he has scarcely played.
With all of these considerations, the Reds may be compelled to search the market for a centre defender, which is where Goncalo Inacio enters. Liverpool reportedly dispatched scouts to observe the brilliant 22-year-old while he was representing Portugal internationally, according to 90min.com (via Liverpool Echo).
What contribution does Inacio make? He is a tall centre back with strong speed, excellent game reading, and exceptional ability to bring the ball out of the back. He also has a long passing range. He is even more intriguing because he has a left foot.
Inácio’s transition from Sporting CP to potential Premier League stalwart status might be compared to that of other former Portuguese league players like Bruno Fernandes, who is now a key component for Manchester United.
It won’t be simple to sign Inacio. He won’t show up without opposition. We have demonstrated in the past that we are unwilling to spend a little bit more if we genuinely want a player, though. Let’s try signing him and see if we can.
