Liverpool have fallen behind AC Milan in the race to sign highly-rated Sao Paulo midfielder Lucas.
The Serie A side's technical director Marco Branco has reportedly met with the 19-year-old's agent, Juan Figer, to discuss a move to the San Siro, taking the Italian club to the head of the queue for the prospect's signature.
The youngster's Brazilian club is not looking to do business in January but could be open to a summer deal, if the price is right.
Lucas has hit three goals in eight games for his boyhood club already this season and has already played ten times for the Brazil national team.
Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri will look to land Lucas and link him up with current Samba star Pato.
