Analysing the Transfer Gossip: 29th July – Part One

Liverpool pursue a loan move for versatile Benfica defender Lorenzo Melgarejo, 22, and see him as possible cover for Jose Enrique.

What’s the story? It seems that Liverpool are looking for someone who can operate in a few positions and Melgarejo can play in every position along the left flank.

Does it make sense? I don’t see why Benfica would loan out their starting left back. Sell him perhaps, but literally no reason to loan him.

Is the price right? Nope. He’s worth £5-6m, maybe more, so why on earth Benfica are loaning him to sit on Liverpool’s bench is beyond me. Think again wherever this came from.

Will it happen? 1/10 – Not in this form but maybe if Liverpool are willing to pay.
