Liverpool and Porto have denied that any negotiations have taken place over a potential transfer involving Otavio, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

“Wijnaldum made a mistake in choosing PSG,” Van der Vaart said.



“Meanwhile, [Steven] Berghuis made an excellent choice choosing to move from Feyenoord to Ajax.



But that has been completely dismissed by Italian journalist Romano, who insists that Liverpool and Porto ‘deny all the stories about Otavio deal’.



The Brazil-born Portugal international has caught the attention of a number of clubs after impressing for Portuguese champions Porto last season.

And the Daily Mirror claimed over the weekend that ‘Porto expect Liverpool to firm up their interest in winger Otavio this week after rejecting £26million bid from Leeds’.

Otavio’s release clause is also said to be ‘€40m and not €60m’ as reported with Romano continuing by saying ‘Otavio and [Georginio] Wijnaldum are not in the list for Liverpool as things stand – still long market, but no talks for these two.’ Leicester City, West Ham, Wolves and Everton have all been linked with a move for Wijnaldum while there have been murmurings on social media about a possible return to Anfield.
