The *Daily Mirror* have linked [Liverpool](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/liverpool) with a move for [Benfica](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/benfica) left midfielder [Nicolas Gaitan](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/nicolas-gaitan).

The 23 year old has appeared 3 times for Argentina and was bought by [Benfica](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/benfica) from Argentinean side [Boca Juniors](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/boca-juniors) for €8.4million last summer. Gaitan has actually scored seven goals in his 23 league appearances for the Portuguese club this season and played an important role in the Lisbon side’s progression to the quarter final of the [Europa League](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/europa-league) by scoring a crucial goal against [Paris St-Germain](https://live4liverpool.com/tag/paris-st-germain).
