South American footballers are hot properties in the Premier League at the moment. Just take a look at last two major signings. Both hail from the continent, and had it not been for Brexit, perhaps the club might have even brought them to sooner. Both had been extensively followed, even as teenagers plying their trade in Colombia and Uruguay respectively. Considering South American players are such hot commodities, it's likely that Liverpool will have a contingent at the U20 South American Championships taking place at the moment in Colombia.
Now with conditions even better to move for South American talents, Liverpool should be paying close attention to the tournament, and one forward in particular.
In this sense he resembles another former Liverpool forward from Uruguay in who he is a lot like.
