With Dejan Lovren, Joe Gomez, Joël Matip all out injured and Nathaniel Clyne departing to Bournemouth Liverpool are a bit thin in both the centre back and right back areas. So much so that 16-year-old Dutch defender Ki-Jana Hoever was given his debut at the club.

In Eder Militao, who is only 20, you have an athletic centre back who has already made his debut for the Brazilian national team. His one cap for Brazil was a 90 minute run out at the right back position showing his ability to play that role as well.

With fellow Brazilians Alisson, Fabinho and Firmino already at the club, Militao should have no problem adapting. With Porto still in the final stages of the Champions League, the Portuguese champions will be very hesitant to part with their starting central defender.
