The ECHO understands Liverpool have also renewed their pursuit of Sporting Lisbon centre-back Tiago Ilori. Rodgers was keen to wrap up a deal back in June but talks between the clubs broke down. The Reds had a bid of around £3million rejected with Sporting demanding more than double that amount. However, Ilori’s refusal to pen a new contract in Portugal has given Liverpool hope that a compromise fee can now be agreed for the 20-year-old. The Reds were represented at Sporting’s game against Arouca yesterday and further discussions were held with the young defender’s representatives.
