Camacho edging close to Sporting move

Rafael Camacho is edging closer to a return to Sporting Lisbon with the versatile winger keen on a move away from Liverpool this summer.

The 19-year-old made just two senior appearances for the Reds last season, including his first team debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup, though the teenager was said to be frustrated by his lack of opportunities.

And according to Sport Witness via Portuguese outlet A Bola, Sporting are closing in on the signing Camacho this summer after advances in negotiations over a fee for the winger.

The Reds reportedly wanted an initial fee of close to €10million for the 19-year-old, while Sporting were eyeing a figure nearer to €5million for the teenager who came through their youth ranks.

And the report suggests a compromise has been reached, with the Portuguese outfit agreeing to include a buy-back clause and a percentage of any future transfer fee in the deal for the winger.
