Liverpool to ‘make shock move’ for £20m ‘gem’ but face transfer fight with Premier League rivals
Liverpool are reportedly among two Premier League clubs ‘casting an eye over’ Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha amid his great form for the Londoners.
The 27-year-old has spent the majority of his career in Portugal with Sporting Lisbon prior to his move to the Premier League in the summer.
Fulham pulled off a coup to recruit the midfielder following their promotion. Man Utd and Wolves were linked with him but the Londoners got him for around £20m.
Ahead of this season's deadline day on Tuesday, here are the eight signings Liverpool have made on previous January deadline days.

Fee: £2.6million
Having made little impression at Real Madrid, Arbeloa caught Liverpool's eye during a brief stint with Deportivo and Rafael Benitez was convinced to sign his fellow Spaniard at a bargain price.
I through the season, especially at the last minute. When they have, it has always involved multiple faces being hurried through the door somewhat frantically.
The deadline day of January 2011 is memorable for both the right and the wrong reasons, while the one four years prior was drastically more successful.
And in 2021, Liverpool were infamously forced to act at the eleventh hour after suffering another crucial injury blow during a fixture with Tottenham on 28 January.
