Liverpool targets Jules Kounde for £60 million transfer from Barcelona

Liverpool is reportedly interested in signing defender Jules Kounde from Barcelona, with sources stating that the Catalan club would accept offers starting at £60 million. The Reds' right-back situation has faced challenges due to injuries to current players, leading to a search for potential reinforcements. Kounde, who has fallen out of favor in Hansi Flick's lineup, could be available for a transfer amid Liverpool's concerns over squad depth. Discussions about potential moves are expected as the January window approaches, but it remains unclear if a deal can be negotiated.
