Liverpool Interested In Diego Carlos With £64m Release Clause

Liverpool’s transfer targets now include Sevilla centre-back, Diego Carlos.

Carlos joined Los Nervionenses from Nantes last summer and has done pretty well for them this season so far.

The Brazilian defender has featured in 21 matches for Sevilla across all competitions, scoring two goals against Real Valladolid and Real Mallorca.

The 26-year-old, who has a release clause of £64 million, is among Reds’ transfer targets according to Goal.com.

This report also claims that Liverpool’s other transfer targets include Jadon Sancho, Leon Bailey, Joe Gelhardt and Sandro Tonali.

Jurgen Klopp’s side currently have the best defensive record in the EPL and a big reason behind this is because of the fine performances of their centre-backs.

However, with Joel Matip and Dejan Lovren injured, the Reds only have Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez as their recognisable centre-halves.

Both players have done very well lately but the European champions will be in a tough situation if either of them gets injured.

Hence, adding Carlos to their squad would be a good move from the Reds.
