Liverpool have reportedly opened talks with Benfica over a move for highly-rated midfielder Enzo Fernandez.
The 21-year-old attracted the attention of the Portuguese giants during his time at River Plate, and he has continued to go from strength to strength in Europe.
Fernandez has also emerged as a breakout star of the 2022 World Cup, producing a string of impressive midfield performances to help La Albiceleste reach the semi-finals.
Fernandez is under contract with Benfica until the end of the 2026-27 season, and it could supposedly take upwards of £100m for the Portuguese giants to sanction a sale.
Liverpool have been strongly linked with a move for the Argentina international as they look to beef up their midfield in 2023, while Real Madrid and Manchester United have also been tipped to make offers.
