After joining Liverpool's academy from Sporting CP at the end of the 2015/2016 season, it's fair to say things haven't quite worked out for Rafa Camacho at Anfield.

The Portugal U18 international has struggled to breakthrough in Jurgen Klopp's first-team side and has only made just a late cameo appearance in the Premier League back in a 4-3 win over Crystal Palace in January.

Now, Portuguese publication A Bola claim Camacho is edging closer to a return to Sporting this summer, and that the 19-year-old is keen on having his transfer back to his homeland completed as fast as possible so as to avoid joining up with pre-season training at Melwood.
