Liverpool set to capitalize on Barcelona by sealing AMAZING double deal

Liverpool don’t often get the opportunity to sign two players they’ve had their eye on for a long time from the same club. It’s especially rare when that club is Barcelona, a team that has taken players from Anfield in recent years, rather than selling them to Liverpool. For example, players like Luis Suarez and Philippe Coutinho both left for the Camp Nou, much to the disappointment of Liverpool fans.

Historically, Liverpool have looked to other clubs, such as Southampton, for signings. But now, the tables could turn, offering Liverpool the chance to take advantage of Barcelona’s current financial troubles.

Why Liverpool have a golden chance to complete the Frenkie de Jong transfer

Barcelona is in a tough financial situation and is actively trying to offload some of its high-earning players. A recent report suggests that Frenkie de Jong could be one of those players, with Barcelona eager to sell him rather than renew his contract, which runs until 2026. Liverpool is reportedly interested in acquiring the Dutch midfielder.

This situation creates an opportunity for Liverpool to act quickly, as Barcelona needs to sell De Jong now, or risk him staying until his contract expires and leaving for free. Liverpool is keen to add a midfielder of De Jong’s caliber, and if he becomes available at a reduced price, it could be a perfect opportunity for them to secure a player who Arne Slot, his fellow Dutchman, knows well. De Jong could form a formidable double pivot with Ryan Gravenberch.

Why Liverpool have a golden chance to complete the Dani Olmo transfer

In another potential development, Barcelona’s Dani Olmo may also become available for free transfer in the January window. Liverpool has long been interested in Olmo, having tried to sign him in the past when he was at RB Leipzig.

Earlier this year, Barcelona made use of Article 77 of LaLiga’s Club Budget Preparation Rules, reallocating 80 percent of Andreas Christensen’s salary to Olmo’s contract due to the Danish player’s injury. This allowed Barcelona to register Olmo for the first half of the season. However, this registration expires on December 31, and with Christensen now fit, Barcelona must adjust Olmo’s contract.

Barcelona attempted to register Olmo for the second half of the season but was denied by Judge Ignacio Fernandez de Senespleda, who rejected the injunction that would have allowed him to play. Despite this setback, Barcelona has filed a new lawsuit, with a hearing set for Monday, December 30, to try and secure Olmo’s registration.

If the lawsuit is unsuccessful, Olmo could become available on a free transfer, potentially opening the door for Liverpool to complete an exceptional double signing from Barcelona.
