Barcelona to allow £85m Liverpool target leave in January

Liverpool are keen to land Ousmane Dembele in an £85million January transfer

Liverpool are continued to be favored to make a January move for Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembele who is reportedly unhappy to remain at the Camp Nou.

The French winger 's discipline remains cause for concern for Barcelona and he has angered boss Ernesto Valverde on more than one occasion.

Dembele was left out of Barcelona's home defeat to Real Betis in the La Liga due to a "stomach bug" but there are suggestions the Catalan club could let him go in January.

According to the Sun Liverpool are weighing up a stunning club-record £85m bid for the Frenchman in what would be a real boost to their title chances.

Liverpool manager Klopp is said to be a big fan of Ousmane Dembele who formerly played for Borussia Dortmund where the German managed until 2015.
