Liverpool face competition from Lazio for the signing of Anderson Talisca.

According to a report on talkSPORT the Benfica striker is a summer target for the Italian side as well as being a long term target for Liverpool.

Talisca is currently on loan at Besiktas but is due back in Portugal at the end of the season.

With Lazio expecting to lose Kelta Balde in the summer Talisca has been highlighted as a possible replacement.

Jurgen Klopp is looking to bring in fresh striking options and was quoted with an interest in the 23-year-old before he moved to Turkey.

Talisca struggled to make an impact with Benfica but has bagged seven goals since going out on loan to Turkey and started to attract attention.

That form is certain to earn him a move away from Benfica who he joined in 2014 from Bahia of Brazil with Liverpool facing tough competition if they are to lure him to Anfield.
