It was a month ago that Liverpool were linked to Santos wonderkid Marcos Leonardo.
In claims made by Milton Neves on TV, it was said the striker was on his way to the Reds, even though the story didn’t have any developments in the following weeks.
At that time, we gave some reasons why people should or shouldn’t believe in this rumour, as despite the journalist not being the best source, there had been previous claims in the local media that Marcos Leonardo was already sold to an English club.
The youngster continues to impress for Santos, and another story about Liverpool’s interest now shows up on Bolavip. There they claim that the ‘tendency’ is that the Reds will prepare an official offer to sign the player ‘very soon’.
It’s said that the Anfield side like his ‘style’, and that’s why they’ve been focusing on Marcos Leonardo instead of chasing Palmeiras starlet Endrick, who’s also wanted by many European sides.
The Santos player has 15 goals in 39 appearances this season, and it certainly won’t take long until he moves to Europe. However, we continue to wait for more reliable outlets to say something on Liverpool’s interest.
