The favour Liverpool would ask of Portuguese agent Jorge Mendes

A summer signing for Wolverhampton Wanderers, the former Sporting Portugal player is one of the options to boost Liverpool's midfield. His agent Jorge Mendes could be a key player in the operation. So the Reds would ask him for a favour to bring the player closer and thus fulfil the desire of German coach Jürgen Klopp to have a new midfielder.

Matheus Nunes (24) was a major summer investment for Wolverhampton Wanderers. Specifically, from a €50m outlay during the last summer transfer window. Namely, the details of the deal were set at €45m fixed + another €5m in incentives. He has barely had a few minutes in the Premier League, but the closeness with Jorge Mendes could accelerate his recruitment so that it is at Liverpool where he will end up demonstrating his talent.

Coming from Sporting Portugal, he represents an interesting bet for the future of Liverpool's engine room. For now, Jürgen Klopp's side will be on the lookout for his impact in the always exciting Premier League. Before the Deadline closed, Brazilian midfielder Arthur Melo arrived at Anfield from Juventus, although he has not been up to scratch so far and could soon be a failed signing for the Reds.

According to local media, the Reds could be in talks with Jorge Mendes. What's more, Nunes' agent has a great professional relationship with Julian Ward, the sporting director at Anfield. That is why, of course, this factor could facilitate his move to Liverpool by joining the list of players who have Mendes as their agent, such as Fabinho, Luis Diaz and goalkeeper Allison Becker.

In that respect, the Merseyside outfit are keen to add more players to their midfield. Therefore, the alternative of Nunes, who has already shone for Sporting, remains on Klopp's Liverpool agenda. For now, Wolves will enjoy the midfielder's performances as they look to improve their position in the table and avoid relegation, as their start to the season has been a failure.
