Leeds United star Raphinha is ‘high on the list of Liverpool scouts’, according to France Football [via Sport Witness].
The Brazilian has been a key man for Marcelo Bielsa’s side this season and he played all 90 minutes in Monday’s 2-0 win at home to Crystal Palace.
Raphinha has been linked with Liverpool in recent days and it is a rumour that is refusing to go away.
This latest update claims that Reds scouts are watching him closely, ahead of a possible future move.

The early signs suggest that Raphinha would be tailor-made to thrive in this Liverpool team.
He has taken to the Premier League like a duck to water, chipping in with eight goal contributions (four goals, four assists) for Leeds and wowing with his trickery out wide, as well as his work-rate.
Blessed with pace, quick feet and end product, the 24-year-old could be a perfect player to bring in and provide competition for the front-three, especially Mohamed Salah on the right wing.
He is still young enough to keep maturing and improving as a player, as was the case with Salah when he arrived from Roma in 2017.
