Liverpool target not for sale in January

 

Barcelona have no interest in selling Ousmane Dembele in January amid interest from Liverpool, claims the London Evening Standard.

 

Dembele has endured a mixed time since joining Barcelona from Borussia Dortmund in a deal worth more than £130m in the summer of 2017.

 

The France international has failed to nail down a regular starting berth at Barcelona and has been heavily linked with a move away this year.

 

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp reportedly wants to bolster his offensive options by signing Dembele in January but may have to look elsewhere.

Despite struggling to adapt to life in Spain, Barcelona are reportedly not interested in selling the 21-year-old.

 

Dembele has only started 19 league matches for Barcelona since the start of last season.

 

Despite lacking regular playing time, Dembele has still managed to play a direct hand 14 goals (seven goals, seven assists).
