Liverpool are eyeing up a January move for Pedro Brazao, according to RMC Sport, via the Daily Mail.
The 17-year-old Nice winger made his debut for the Ligue 1 this season and is being tipped for a bright future.
Liverpool are believed to be keen on signing the Portugal Under-19 star, but Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich could provide stiff competition for his signature.
Sporting CP are also touted as a potential candidate, should a return home appeal to Brazao.
Takumi Minamino and Joe Hardy have already come in at Anfield this month, from Salzburg and Brentford respectively.

I can’t admit to knowing anything about Brazao as a player, but given Liverpool’s scouting brilliance during the Jurgen Klopp era, he could be an exciting addition.
This is a perfect time for a young player to move to Merseyside, in my opinion, with a new training ground opening in the summer, meaning first-team stars will train alongside academy prospects.
Brazao could excel in the youth setup initially, despite already playing senior football this season, before making the step up to the Reds.
I think it is clear that Jurgen Klopp is always willing to give youth a chance, shown recently in the FA Cup win over Everton, so the teenager would fit right in at Liverpool.
