Liverpool eye Gerson Magrao deal

Liverpool are looking to sign Gerson Magrao from Dynamo Kiev, according to reports from Russia. The Brazilian left-back has been targeted by Reds' coach Kenny Dalglish in a 5m GBP deal.

There are reports that Braga in Portugual are also interested in Magrao, a player who has yet to play for Brazil but is believed to have a Portuguese passport that would help him secure a work permit for Liverpool.

Liverpool are desperately looking for new left backs after seemingly telling Newcastle that they are unwilling to match their asking price for Jose Enrique.
