Valencia 'planning January move for Tiago Ilori'

Valencia are reportedly hoping to sign Liverpool defender Tiago Ilori on loan when the transfer window reopens in January.

The centre-back has struggled to find first-team football at Anfield, lying behind Kolo Toure and Mamadou Sakho in the pecking order.

Valencia are lining up Ilori as a temporary replacement for Adil Ramim, who is due to complete a move to AC Milan in the New Year, according to the Daily Mail.

Ilori joined Liverpool from Sporting Lisbon over the summer in a deal worth £7m.
