FRENCH MEDIA CLAIMS LIVERPOOL TARGET MALCOM

Liverpool are ready to make an approach to Barcelona over a deal to sign out-of-favour winger Malcom, according to reports in the French media.

Le10Sport claim Jurgen Klopp has identified the Brazilian forward as a priority signing for the Reds this summer amid claims he thinks Barcelona could cash in on the former Bordeaux winger.

Malcom has started just one LaLiga game for Ernesto Valverde’s side since a €41m summer switch in summer 2018, having found first-team opportunities difficult to come by.

The former Corinthians man scored the equaliser in the Copa del Rey semi-final first leg against Real Madrid last week, but has largely had to make do with time on the bench.

The 21-year-old has also been linked with moves to China and Tottenham and Le10 Sport claims that while Barca do not want to sell, will be swayed if the winger asks for the chance to move on.
