£6 million South American defender is one of Liverpool’s top target for January.

In January, Liverpool is rumoured to be interested in signing Fluminense star Nino as a defensive bolster.

The Brazilian team’s 26-year-old central defender has performed admirably this season and contributed to their Copa Libertadores victory. He played a significant role in getting them to the Club World Cup final as well.

According to a Fichajes report, the Premier League team has taken notice of his performances, and Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes that the January transfer window is the best time to buy the midfielder.

The defender has contributed five goals and two assists for Fluminense this season across all competitions, and Klopp should find him to be a valuable tool when setting up set pieces.

Liverpool wants to win the competition and go all the way since they are now leading the league standings. To have a successful season finale, they must fill the holes in their roster in January.

The Brazilian would be a good addition, therefore Liverpool should try their hardest to finalise the deal.

Wishlist for Liverpool’s January 2024 transfer window

In the winter transfer window, Liverpool may search for another holding midfield player.
Wataru Endo in the Asian Cup and Mohamed Salah at the AFCON early in the following year will be absent for the Reds.
Given Joel Matip’s season-ending injury, Jurgen Klopp might request defence reinforcements.

Liverpool spent their summer rebuilding their midfield and were busy bees during the previous transfer window.

The Reds are currently in a very strong position in both the Premier League and the Europa League as a result of some wise transactions; they may be recovering surprisingly quickly after a disappointing 2022–2023 season.

But there’s still room for improvement for Jurgen Klopp’s team, particularly as the injuries start to mount. Liverpool added four new players in the summer, but if they don’t add any more players in January, they risk falling behind Europe’s best teams.

The Reds may want to focus on strengthening here this winter.

Defensive midfield

Even while the Reds did invest almost £150 million on new midfield players during the most recent transfer window, it still seems like Klopp could use another in the holding position. This season, Alexis Mac Allister has been utilised primarily in the defensive midfield position; the experiment has yielded mixed results.

Although Wataru Endo, 30, has had a generally successful start to his Liverpool career, it is evident that he was signed as a rotation option for Klopp.

Given that last summer’s attempts to sign Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia failed, Klopp may be eager to add a youthful and talented holding midfield player to his team. Even though Stefan Bajcetic is presently sidelined with an injury, the Merseyside club may not be ready for him to play on a regular basis just yet.

Key targets 

The 22-year-old Andre, a midfielder for Fluminense, is still a major target for Liverpool despite frequent links between the two teams. But the Copa Libertadores winner is also wanted by Arsenal and Fulham, so a move to Anfield is unlikely.

Archie Grey, a 17-year-old Leeds United star, has been heavily linked to Liverpool; however, 90min knows the Whites are not eager to sell.

Another name that is high on Liverpool’s wish list is Joao Neves. In early November, the Reds sent scouts to watch the 19-year-old midfielder for Benfica.

Key targets

Lucas Beraldo, a 20-year-old centre back for Sao Paulo who had made an impression in Brazil, was mentioned as a potential January transfer target for the Reds. But it appears like Paris Saint-Germain has signed him before them.

Goncalo Inacio, 22, a defender for Sporting CP who excelled in Portugal, has long been admired by Liverpool. The five-cap Portugal international is being watched by scouts from the Reds, although Real Madrid is vying for his talents.

Given Matip’s injury, Liverpool, who signed three players from the Bundesliga last summer, would want to add another this January. Jonathan Tah is one such player.

Attacking reinforcements

Liverpool has an extremely talented offensive group, but this season its strikers have not always lived up to expectations. With Diogo Jota sidelined and Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz, and Cody Gakpo finding it difficult to be consistent, Mohamed Salah has been under a lot of pressure to score goals.

Given that the Egyptian winger is thirty-one years old, a succession plan needs to be developed quickly. Ben Doak, a young player who has been on the sidelines, is about to have surgery, so Klopp would be anxious to make sure he has enough choices up top to keep his players fresh.

Key targets 

Johan Bakayoko of PSV Eindhoven is a winger; the 20-year-old Belgian has caught the attention of the Reds following some strong performances in the Eredivisie and throughout Europe. Liverpool may have to contend with Brentford for his services.

Liverpool has long been interested in Borussia Dortmund striker Youssoufa Moukoko, who is expected to push for a loan move in January in an attempt to reach the Germany squad for Euro 2024. Even though bolstering the offence isn’t the top priority this winter, Klopp, who hasn’t signed a player from his former team, might be able to call in some favours.
