It’s going to be a strange summer for Liverpool and Barcelona as the Merseysiders and Catalans begin recruiting new managers. Xavi Hernandez has barely played his main role at the club and Jurgen Klopp will leave a great legacy. Like the trophies he won for Liverpool, their match against Barcelona in the 2019 Champions League semi-final will live in the memories of Reds fans forever.
If the news in the Spanish media is true, their future may also be affected. According to Fichajes, the Reds are ready to bid up to 50 million euros for Barça’s Danish international Andreas Christensen. At the moment, the former Chelsea player is not yet playing in his preferred position and Xavi is sending him into the middle for a Sergio Busquets-like holding role. It is not clear whether the players like him or not, but the Catalans want him now.
His performance in defense was never forgotten. We can say that Barcelona, who conceded three more goals at home in the last match, and Granada, who are 8 points away from the safe zone, deserve to win the match. After conceding 5 goals at home to Villarreal and 4 against Athletic Club, Real Madrid and Girona, it is clear why the club needs money.
