Liverpool are looking out to bring in Benfica forward Anderson Talisca into the Anfield and if reports from the Portuguese newspaper O Jogo is to be believed then the deal is close.

The newspaper states that the FA have received an application for a work permit for the Brazilian. The Reds however may have to face strong competition from Chelsea and Arsenal for the player’s signature.

Liverpool were earlier on the look-out for Piotr Zielinski, however if reports are to be believed then the Reds are no more interested in the player and have further urged the player to take up Napoli’s offer.

Zielinski who has set his heart on a move to the Anfield will now be making decision regarding his move to Napoli instead.

Further, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp reportedly signed a new deal at the Reds which sees him stay at the Anfield till 2022 unlike his previous contract which would expire in 2018.
