Barcelona Transfer Rumours Center On A Young Star With First Team Ambitions
When you’re a top club like Barcelona, you get used to losing some of your high-profile young talent.
Barca has so much talent, that eventually, the world’s top teams start to notice. Eventually, players who don’t crack the first team, start looking for greener pastures.
Jeffern Suarez is one of those players.
Suarez wants to play on a first-team somewhere, and Liverpool has taken interest in the forward.
Per Caught Offside:
Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish is an admirer and hopes to take advantage of Jeffren’s desire to play first-team football and hopes a bid of around £5million will be enough to persuade Barca to sell..
The player is intrigued by the possibility of a move to Merseyside but admits he is focused on the upcoming Euro U21 Championships in Denmark.
“I do not think about that [transfer talk] now,” Jeffren said. “I’m here and I am thinking about what we’re doing [with Spain].
“The truth is that when teams like Liverpool are mentioned I am proud of their interest and we’ll see what it does to me. ”
Liverpool is planning to be very agressive in the transfer market under its new ownership, and getting young talent is a tenet of John Henry’s philosophy.
Jeffren is a talented young player who has a lot of potential, he just needs the opportunity to showcase it, and Liverpool has clearly marked him as part of the group that is going to take the Reds back to the top of the Premier League.
