Liverpool are reportedly tracking the Barcelona winger.
According to a report from Spanish media outlet Sport, Barcelona have told Liverpool that they will have to pay €100 million (£89 million) if they want to sign Ousmane Dembele in January.
The 21-year-old joined Barca from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2017, for a fee that could potentially rise to £135 million, according to BBC Sport, but he has struggled to establish himself as a first-team regular at the Camp Nou.
Despite Dembele’s struggles in Spain, he is still considered to be one of the most exciting young prospects in world football.
Spanish media outlet Sport claim that Barcelona are prepared to cut their losses with the France international in January, but have told Liverpool that they must pay £89 million if they want to bring him to Anfield.
In today’s day and age, £89 million for someone with Dembele’s unbelievable potential and quality must be considered as decent value for money, and Liverpool should not hesitate to bring the 21-year-old to Merseyside in January.
