LIVERPOOL have sent scouts to assess Manchester United target Goncalo Inacio.<\/p>\n
The Reds are looking to hijack their Premier League rivals' attempts to sign the Sporting Lisbon defender.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
United have been long-term admirers of the 22-year-old, who has four caps for his country.<\/p>\n
However, they now face strong competition from Liverpool ahead of the January transfer window.<\/p>\n
According to The Mirror, Jurgen Klopp sent scouts to watch Inacio play for Portugal during the recent international break.<\/p>\n
Liverpool staff were in attendance for Portugal's 5-0 win over Bosnia & Herzegovina last week.<\/p>\n
Inacio had a quiet night as he partnered Manchester City's Ruben Dias in defence.<\/p>\n Paris Saint-Germain are also understood to be interested along with United and Liverpool, who have reportedly already made an enquiry.<\/p>\n The report adds, though, that Sporting are not interested in selling Inacio before next summer.<\/p>\n However, he is rumoured to have a \u00a352million release clause in his contract which would take that decision out of the club's hands.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS<\/strong><\/p>\n Inacio joined Sporting's academy as an eight-year-old before progressing through their ranks and into the first-team.<\/p>\n He has since made 133 appearances for his boyhood club, including 11 so far this season.<\/p>\n MAN UTD NEWS LIVE: Stay up to date with all of the latest transfer and takeover news from Old Trafford<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/picture>MOUR TO COME <\/span><\/p>\n
