Jurgen Klopp wants to sign Sergio Busquets? Here's the truth

After a dream weekend for Barcelona, who secured their third win in a row against Real Madrid, the situation seems to have changed in the last few hours with Gavi's contract issue and his possible departure from the institution after the young Spanish midfielder's contract expires this summer, with the Culés focusing on resolving the issue and securing their star player for a while longer.

While the blaugranas are more than amused fixing that major problem they have in midfield, Liverpool have shown interest not only in being able to acquire the 18-year-old Spanish midfielder, but they have also realised that Barcelona's financial shortfall prevents them from thinking about signing a luxury reinforcement in that area of the field for the summer, opening the way for the Reds to go quietly for the recruitment of those who sounded not long ago to reinforce Barca.

So severe are Barcelona's problems and economic crisis that they see Sergio Busquets as the only hope of keeping the team balanced in midfield for next season, with the Spaniards not wanting the Reds to dismantle that sector by trying to lure Gavi with a better footballing and economic offer than he is currently getting in Spain.

Busquets could be key to Liverpool's success 

Although the performance of Sergio Busquets has always been very consistent and profitable at Barcelona, the Spanish midfielder's age is the only impediment that makes him an unattractive reinforcement even for Liverpool, with the Reds taking advantage of the veteran's experience to put Barcelona in a bind over whether to play it safe or risk their limited finances to try to rescue Gavi's contract, with the English betting that Barcelona will not be able to keep both players for another season.
