The British "Mirror" newspaper reported that the German Liverpool coach, Jurgen Klopp, is waiting to pounce on Barcelona's Spanish star Pedri, in order to include him in the ranks of the "Reds" as of next season, due to the player's qualities that Klopp deems to be of high quality.
The newspaper said that Pedri (18 years), participated with Barcelona in 44 games, and appeared at a distinguished level that made Klopp ask the club management to sign him, but the idea of the transfer will face initial opposition from Juan Laporta, Barcelona president, who stresses the need for Pedri to remain within the Barcelona construction project. New in the coming seasons.
It is noteworthy that Barcelona, which puts a penalty clause in a contract with my hands worth 400 million euros, contracted with the player in the summer of 2019 for five million euros, and loaned him to Las Palmas for one season, before returning to Barca again and playing the matches.
And it will not be Liverpool's first bid to get my hand, as Bayern Munich offered Barcelona the player for 40 million euros last summer, but the Catalan club rejected the deal, which means that the Catalan club will only sell him for an amount that exceeds Bayern's offer.
