– Liverpool are looking to sell Sahko, Balotelli and Benteke
– The reds have already signed seven players this summer
– Jurgen Klopp sent Sakho from his side’s pre-season tours
Liverpool’s summer rebuilding continues as Jurgen Klopp is set to sell more players and bring in one Brazilian attacker from Benfica.According to Bleacher Report (via O Jogo) , Liverpool are looking to sign Benfica’s Talisca but they still face competition from Wolverhampton Wanderers and concerns remain over a work permit.
O Jogo reports that the 22 year old will cost £20 million, with Anfield being the Brazilian’s preferred destination.
The 22-year-old attacker has represented Brazil at youth level but has yet to earn a senior cap despite a call up to the squad in late 2014.

Jurgen Klopp already has a number of top-quality attackers to call upon, including Roberto Firmino, Philippe Coutinho, Daniel Sturridge, Danny Ings and new addition Sadio Mane.
In other Liverpool transfer news, Klopp has sent Mamadou Sakho back to England from Liverpool’s tour of America.
The 26-year-old has been struggling with an Achilles problem and despite various other injured stars staying with the team, Klopp has decided Sakho will not continue his recovery with the rest of the squad.
