Barcelona add Caceres to offer for Liverpool midfielder Mascherano

Barcelona are ready to add Martin Caceres in their offer for Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano.

The Guardian says Barcelona's initial bid of €15m (£12.3m) with €5m more in add-ons was rejected by Liverpool. The Anfield club are understood to be holding out for a fee closer to €26m.

Barcelona are prepared to offer Liverpool Alexander Hleb and Martin Cáceres in part exchange, to increase the bid beyond the current €20m.

Pressure is building on the new president and sporting director from coach Pep Guardiola to get the deal done.
