​Liverpool considered favourites for Barcelona winger Dembele

Liverpool are emerging as the most likely destination for Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembele.

The French winger is not inclined to sign a new contract at the Catalan club.

According to El Nacional, Dembele is likely to leave, and may even be sold in January.

The source claims Liverpool are interested, and a deal could be done before deadline day to ensure Barcelona can recoup some funds for the player.

Manager Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool is a huge admirer of Dembele, and wants to sign a forward before the deadline, given the likes of Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah are going on African Cup of Nations duty.
