# Liverpool not interested in Lucas Paqueta

**It appears that one man that has been linked with a move to Liverpool as a January target will not be making that switch any time soon.**

Lucas Paqueta, who has been starring for Flamengo and has earned himself two international caps with Brazil, had been rumoured to have emerged as a potential player that Jurgen Klopp would look at signing this summer.

[However, according to a report by the London Evening Standard, those rumours could not be further from the truth, with sources at the club revealing that they have been baffled with the links.](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/liverpool-will-not-launch-january-transfer-bid-for-lucas-paqueta-a3958266.html)

It had been claimed that the Reds were considering to make a move with Paqueta’s agent thought to have travelled to Anfield in order to discuss a possible deal for his client.

With Liverpool appearing to pave the way, it is now believed the Brazilian will be joining AC Milan in the near future.

## The Verdict:

It does seem that Paqueta will not be a Liverpool player any time soon as the club have distanced themselves from the rumours.

Despite reports having been made that the agent had visited the club to discuss a potential agreement, the club appeared perplexed with the links and have stated they have no interest in him.

The 21-year-old could have been a great addition for Klopp’s side as he is a skilful talent that has plenty of flair to offer, making him an attacking and creative threat going forward.
