Liverpool rival Arsenal, Chelsea and Man Utd in race to sign €60m Barcelona star

Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea have all been linked with a summer move for Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembele, but fresh reports suggest a fourth Premier League side are interested in the Frenchman.

According to Spanish source Don Balon, Liverpool are monitoring Dembele’s situation at Barcelona with a view to making a summer bid.

Liverpool are wary that Mohamed Salah could be tempted away by Real Madrid this summer and have identified Dembele as a possible replacement for the Egyptian who has 28 goals in his debut Premier League season with the Reds.

Don Balon has suggested that Barcelona would be ready to sell Dembele this summer after having netted just once in 16 appearances following his £110m move from Borussia Dortmund, but as of yet, no club is ready to go above €60m for the former Rennes star.

The 20-year-old attacker still has great potential but could arguably deal with a change of scenery to realise it.

Arsenal are hopeful of signing Dembele so that he can link up with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang at the Emirates, but interest from Manchester United, Chelsea and now Liverpool has made doing so significantly tougher.
