Reds to use pre-contract agreement on full-back
Liverpool target Maxi Pereira is likely to become a free agent at the end of the current season, according to Portuguese newspaper A Bola, who believe that the Reds consider him a suitable replacement for Glen Johnson.
The 30-year-old right-back’s contract is up at Benfica at the end of the season – and Liverpool were linked with a move to the star in the summer.
There is a chance that he could sign an extension at the Estadio de Luz, although negotiations are said to not have started. Liverpool could sign him on a pre-contract agreement in January.
