“I told the Barcelona board to help me take him out of Liverpool because Klopp is a baby coach and does not know how to manage this player,” the player said.Xavi, the manager of Barcelona, has set the goal of acquiring the Rolls Royce player of the year from Liverpool as his main priority by the month of January.

If a Liverpool player decides not to renew his contract, he may leave the club during the upcoming transfer window.
Despite being a highly accomplished midfielder, he wants to leave England and pursue possibilities elsewhere. Surprisingly, FC Barcelona, where he previously played, appears to be the favourite in acquiring him.
According to Sport daily, the 32-year-old Thiago Alcántara has piqued the curiosity of the current Premier League winners.
Liverpool now has the final say on the midfielder’s future, as he can exercise his release clause at the end of the current season.
FC Barcelona’s continuous financial woes will have an impact on their sporting plans for the coming season.
Despite finishing the fiscal year 2022/23 with a positive margin, the club still has outstanding obligations to pay, and the salary ceiling will be adjusted further in the summer of 2024 due to LaLiga’s financial fair play laws.
As a result, the team will prioritise cost-effective recruits to strengthen the squad, a strategy that has proven successful in the previous two transfer windows.
Thiago Alcantara’s contract with FC Barcelona expires in June, and there were rumours over the summer that he could join Turkish club Trabzonspor. Unfortunately, no agreement was achieved.
Even if Thiago becomes a free agent, FC Barcelona will be unable to acquire him in January due to their priority of acquiring Vitor Roque and the restrictive salary cap, which prevents extra deals.
The situation may alter in the summer, as the club intends to strengthen both the midfield and attacking positions by bringing in at least three or four new players.
