This is the Blood Red Podcast from the Liverpool Echo, giving you the inside track on all the big talking points from Anfield.

The agenda here on the Blood Red channel, I'm Guy Clark alongside me, Matt Add Kaye as we discuss

Liverpool's foray into the Portuguese market. Of course, Louis Diaz signed in January,

Darwin Nunez in this summer window and the latest links are linking

Liverpool with a move back for another Porto player in Otavio.

Matt, I'll throw over to you first. This is a player who I remember last summer we spoke about was being linked with a move to Liverpool.

What is the story coming out of Portugal regarding this one?

Yeah, it's an interesting one. I think it's a player that you can kind of see why

Liverpool might be interested. I'd certainly put it like that. He's exactly the kind of

player that I like watching. I've certainly enjoyed watching a few bits on

YouTube since he's been linked with Liverpool again. He's very much a player that is almost a little bit kind of Fabio Cavallio-like in a sense of he's pretty much a number 10 can play wide as well but he's very hard working very much a

a player who wins the ball back high up the field,

which I can see that Liverpool might be interested in

and the suggestion really that the latest rumors and that is all they are at this

moment in time is that the United are very much interested in him sort of talk of

about 26 27 million pound bid being put in, which has been rejected apparently from Porto for him and Porto

seeming to believe that there's a possibility Liverpool might be interested in him as well and

potentially similar to the Louis Diaz deal obviously in January.

Tottenham and West Ham one or two others came in for Louis Diaz and

Liverpool kind of their hand was forced if they wanted him they had to go in and

get him that seems to be the suggestion here as well that obviously Leeds

interested I would imagine is probably one or two other teams as well across
