Liverpool are apparently negotiating with Porto about Brazilian attacking midfielder Otavio.

Of course they're probably talking about Grujic and the papers have made 2+2=5.

signed a new contract march as per Ed002 so can probably rule that one out unless we are offering Gruijc plus cash which is unlikely.

Gravenbach, Octavio, Florian, Bissouma etc etc. So many 'advanced' talks etc going on. Sounds a bit like Jan when we were looking for a CB.
We'll probably sign someone not mentioned before now.

His new release clause kicks in on 1/ 7/ 21. ATM I think he available for 40 million euros. Maybe his agent is just getting the info out there.

Would rather the young kid at Porto we were linked with a few weeks back Fabio Vieira.

I’m just relieved to hear that the talk of Aaron Ramsey has disappeared.

Not thrilled by the Otavio links. I don’t think he’s as good as Jones or Ox.

Few seasons at Porto now and never really had a great season to date.

Quick look at his numbers and no more than 5 goals and a handful of assists in a season from an advanced midfield position and already 26.

Ramsey talk disappeared? Regardless to say he’s better than half our midfielders. Jones, Ox, Shaq, Taki et. al.

a whole lot of smoke and mirrors, pinging bids and leaking interest out to confuse and keep people guessing seems to be the approach.
I wonder why we didn't go for Daka, Eds?

{Ed002's Note - The same reason as Kyle Dempsey.}

Kyle Dempsey?

{Ed002's Note - Exactly. A well made point.}
