Liverpool winger Rafael Camacho is heading back to Sporting Lisbon on loan – less than 24 hours after being given his debut by Jurgen Klopp.

Sources in Portugal, claim that Camacho has been allowed to move to Sporting on an 18-month loan deal after making his bow in the FA Cup defeat at Wolves last night.

The highly-rated teenager played impressed as a right-back at Molineux despite the 2-1 third-round loss.

But Klopp has decided that a move back to Sporting will help his development.

Camacho will be out of contract in the summer of 2020, when his spell in Portugal also comes to an end.

The Portuguese Under-18 international, began his career with the Lisbon club at the age of eight.

He moved to Manchester City’s academy when he was 13, before joining Liverpool two years ago.

Camacho was an unused substitute when Liverpool played Everton in the Mersey derby last April.

Liverpool's much-changed side fell short against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup on Monday night, but that might have a positive effect on their Champions League chances.

Jurgen Klopp opted to make nine changes for the third round clash at Molineux, with only Dejan Lovren and James Milner surviving from the side that started the 2-1 loss at Manchester City .

When Lovren had to go off just five minutes into the game, Dutch defender Ki-Jana Hoever became the Reds' third young player of the evening to make his senior debut, joining Curtis Jones and Camacho.

Liverpool's elimination means that they will have free weekends on January 26/27 and February 16/17.

Liverpool's next six fixtures Brighton (a) - January 12 Crystal Palace (h) - January 19 Leicester (h) - January 30 West Ham (a) - February 4 Bournemouth (h) - February 9 Bayern Munich (CL, h) - February 19

That means Liverpool will have the huge boost of a 10-day break ahead of the first leg of their Champions League last-16, first leg against Bayern Munich on February 19.
