Rumours that Liverpool were set to land Alexandre Pato appear to have been quashed before they’ve even got off the ground.
Earlier reports from South America appeared to have indicated that the former AC Milan player, currently playing for Brazilian club Corinthians, was set for a move to Anfield.
#Liverpool have agreed to sign Alexandre Pato in January, according to Corinthians president Roberto de Andrade. #LFC. Thoughts?
