Lucas Paqueta was a player linked with a move to Liverpool in the summer window. PremiumSportHD (h/t Daily Star) claimed that the player had a £40m release clause and the Reds had “established” their interest in the 20-year-old attacking midfielder.
Although the youngster couldn’t join the Reds, a recent clip of the Brazilian has proven he could do a lot of pressing for us.
The clip is about half-a-minute long but it has Paqueta running all around the pitch, pressurizing the opposition.
Klopp need Paqueta. I love Fekir but Paqueta better. What do you think where will He go? Liverpool ? City? Psg? Barca? pic.twitter.com/YpVgtWqu8u

He would be an interesting dynamic to have in the side and given his age, the Brazilian would only get better under Jurgen Klopp.
A few fans had their say on the young Brazilian and here are some reactions from Twitter.
Lucas Paquetá is needed in January. Don’t let him go to PSG @LFC

Saw this video earlier and couldn’t get a reply to his name, regardless of what he’s doing or where he’s at this is fantastic. This is what Klopp watches to go to bed.
