Liverpool Scout 17-Year Grêmio Winger Gabriel Mec as Long-Term Target

Any move to England would have to wait until after his 18th birthday under FIFA rules.

Overview

Transfer insider Nicolò Schira reports that Liverpool are monitoring Mec, with no club confirmation or formal offer at this stage.
Mec featured for Brazil at the U17 World Cup in November, appearing in seven of eight matches.
The teenager has only two senior appearances for Grêmio, indicating he would be viewed as a development project rather than an immediate first-team option.
FIFA regulations prevent an international move to England before he turns 18 in April 2026, making the summer 2026 window the earliest feasible timing.
Grêmio are considering an improved contract to retain him as other European sides, including Shakhtar Donetsk and Chelsea, have been linked.
