Liverpool agree deal for Tiago Llori's signature

Premier League side Liverpool have reportedly agreed a deal for the signing of Tiago Llori from Sporting Lisbon for a fee in the region of £8m.

The 20-year-old, who has been a long-term target for Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers, is set to have a medical at the Merseyside club before finalising personal terms with the club, according to Sky Sports.


Earlier, Monaco and Valencia were linked with the talented Portuguese centre-back, who has represented his country at all youth levels.  


Llori could be one of the two defensive recruits to join the Reds this summer, with reports suggesting that the Anfield side have struck a £19.6m deal for Paris Saint-Germain's highly-rated defender Mamadou Sakho.
