Hi Ed02. Is there any possibility that Liverpool could sign Sporting defender Goncalo Inacio.
I have looked on the site and elsewhere and have seen very little transfer news on him recently.
With several names no longer available to Liverpool, could he be an option, or would Sporting still refuse to deal with Liverpool, due to recent conduct. Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - Goncalo Inacio (CB) Watched by scouts from a number of PL sides, including Liverpool and Manchester United, with the latter declaring an interest. The other side to declare an interest is PSG. Real Madrid offer a wildcard option. Sporting would rather not sell and are looking to a new contract and an increased release clause. Newcastle have begun talks with Sporting in order to be able to speak directly to the player and to understand if there is flexibility in the payment schedule. Arsenal interest would have departed with the signing of Timber. The player has also been offered to Chelsea but they have preferred options for a long-term Silva replacement. The player is open to a move to Manchester United. Liverpool have likely burned theri bridges already.}

Honestly quite unbelievable that our conduct is still so amateurish and unprofessional that clubs actively refuse to deal with us. Culture at the club needs seriously evaluating.

The amount of times we have lost out on a player or had to spend more just to stop a complaint going in is shocking. This is the one side of Klopp and the club that I really don’t like and the fact that it still happens after 7 years just shows that we thing we above the rules! Just stop .

If we're persisting with this 3box3 system then Inacio is tailor made for the LCB role in it. It doesn't look like we're willing to go back and repair the relationship with Sporting any time soon though.

Thanks for that detailed answer Edo2. That's another defender crossed off the list.

We ain't buying no defender. more excuses to follow. We couldn't get the right player and other teams wanted them too, the players we wanted weren't available ect ect. This club won't move on till fsg sell up.
What's the crack with making interest known in players like kone and thuram and then just walking away. I don't get it myself.

Magico - ed2 has already given you a couple responses that explain why 'x' player isn't coming. and none of those responses have been had anything to do with the owners.

Wait, I thought the anti FSG Brigade tell us everytime that they are the sole reason we can’t sign players. I did not know Klopp tapping platers up was another one. Who would have thought?
