Liverpool will reportedly send a representative to watch young Fluminense duo Wallace and Andre in action at the upcoming Copa São Paulo.

According to O Globo, Reds officials will be present at the U20 tournament, which is the most famous youth tournament in Brazil.

Apparently the club are keen to get a better look at Fluminense youngsters Wallace and Andre.

Wallace – who supposedly has a £26 million release clause – caught the eye this season with his performances at attacking midfield, while Andre excelled as a defensive shield.

Liverpool have a good relationship with Fluminense having loaned them Allan for the season just gone, suggesting that future transfer dealings between the two clubs could well be possible.

TBR’s view – Liverpool on for two gems?

Liverpool could well be set to further strengthen their academy even further.

Perhaps a deal for Wallace may be tricky with that supposed £26 million release clause in place, but maybe an agreement can be reached given the positive relationship between the clubs.

If Liverpool can help Fluminense to land Allan, then it could make life easier over the young South American duo.
