Liverpool send scouts to watch Marlos Moreno at US tournament
Liverpool, Benfica and Paris Saint-Germain have all sent scouts to run the rule over Atletico Nacional ace Marlos Moreno.
The 19-year-old forward is regarded as one of South America's hottest prospects with a host of leading European clubs expected to be in the market for him in the summer.
Moreno made his senior international debut for Colombia last month and is expected to be included in the squad for this summer's Copa America.
According to A Bola, scouts from Benfica will be joined by counterparts from Liverpool and PSG at the tournament in the United States.
Atletico are already prepared for a wave of bids after the tournament, with chairman Juan Carlos De La Cuesta admitting the club may have to consider selling their prodigy if the offer is right.
"So far there is no transfer, but there is interest," he told Radio Caracol.
"If there is a good offer, we will have to consider it. Benfica have made several approaches, but no formal offer."
