Liverpool have earmarked a Barcelona pair to replace Mohamed Salah if the forward is granted a move to join Saudi Pro League side Al Ittihad, according to reports.
Some Barcelona players are reportedly unhappy with the situation at the club and could attempt to negotiate an exit this summer, with Liverpool keeping tabs on Ezra Abde and Ansu Fati.
The duo remain unconvinced that they will be given regular minutes under Xavi this season, and should Salah leave, both will be targeted by Liverpool, as reported by SPORT.
Liverpool remain determined to keep hold of their Egyptian star but could be convinced by a mega-money offer that may force their hand to cash-in.
That would leave the Anfield club tasked with a mad dash for new talent before the transfer window closes on Friday, with a raid on Barcelona being planned.
The LaLiga champions have made a decent start to the new season, winning two games and drawing one, but have a dressing room packed with players that are seeking more regular minutes.
Fati and Abde are part of a growing collective of players that are unhappy with how they are being treated by Xavi with Spanish media describing the situation as a ‘hornets nest’.
