Liverpool Confirm Departure of Rafael Camacho to Sporting CP on Permanent Deal

Liverpool have confirmed that 19-year-old winger Rafael Camacho has left the club to join hometown team Sporting CP on a permanent deal back in his native Portugal.

Born in Lisbon, Camacho previously spent five years in the Sporting youth setup before moving to England and joining Manchester City. He arrived at Liverpool in 2016 and eventually made his senior debut in the FA Cup third round against Wolves in January.

The youngster, who was a regular for the Reds at Under-23 level, also got on the pitch in the Premier League during a 4-3 win over Crystal Palace that same month.
