Liverpool in talks with Fluminense superkid Evanilson

Fluminense superkid Evanilson is a target for Liverpool.

Local outlet Netflu says his goalscoring form has alerted Liverpool, who have been monitoring Evanilson and have made contact with his representatives.

The 20-year-old's contract expires in February 2020, so Fluminese could be prepared to sell for around £4million rather than lose him for nothing next year.

The Fluminese striker was the top scorer in Brazil's under-20 league last season, and had a short loan spell at Slovakian club Samorin, where he scored three goals in six appearances.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has said the Reds will sign a striker in the January transfer window if Rhian Brewster goes out on loan.
