But it seems that Liverpool fans desires and hopes of seeing the Brazilian at Anfield are a long way from being fulfilled at least according to the Corinthians president.
Roberto de Andrade has flat out denied any deal for the player has taken place, and has told Globoesporte that there has been no contact from Liverpool for the player, while on TV later ONSaturday evening he explained that there was very little to any of the speculation.
“Corinthians have received nothing. Nothing concrete has arrived.”
Corinthians' president Roberto de Andrade talked to Globo Esporte, he denied that Alexandre Pato is in talks to join Liverpool.
