Liverpool eye Brazilian left-back after Leicester demand £10m for Ben Chilwell
LIVERPOOL are reportedly interested in a move for Atletico Mineiro left-back Douglas Santos.
Douglas Santos is under contract with Atletico Mineiro until 2018
The left-back joined Mineiro from Udinese in July 2015 for £2.3million.
He is under contract with the Brazilian side until the summer of 2018, but has been linked with a move away from the club this summer.
And now Brazilian outlet Globo Esporte claim Liverpool have asked about the left-back.
The report adds Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund and Valencia are also chasing the 22-year-old.
Douglas, who has made one international appearance for Brazil, is valued at £7.7million.
Liverpool are on the lookout for a new left-back this summer with Alberto Moreno’s future at the club in doubt.
The Reds have been told to pay £10m for Leicester youngster Ben Chilwell after failing with a £7m bid, and could now turn to Douglas as an alternative.
