Liverpool To Finally Sign £85.4m-rated Playmaker

This summer might be the time for Liverpool to finally sign Ousmane Dembele who has been a transfer target for the better part of the last four years.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is an admirer of the quality that the French attacker possesses.

He was first mentioned as a potential Liverpool signing in 2016 as Klopp was keen to secure his transfer for the Reds before the German tactician was dealt a big blow after the player snubbed him to join his former club Borussia Dortmund that summer.

Ousmane Dembele spent just one year before Spanish giants Barcelona spent around €140m (£103m) to seal his transfer from Borussia Dortmund to the Nou Camp.

The 2018 World Cup winner has been injury prone since his Barcelona career started and the Spaniards are expected to sanction his sale without thinking twice as long as they can get a buyer for him.

Barcelona want €100m for Dembele with the five-time European champions desperate to recoup a lot of the money splashed on his signing three years ago.

Dembele is currently on the treatment table as Barcelona prepare for their return to the Champions League next month.

Barcelona have been pitted with Italian club Napoli in the last 16 of the competition.
