Bernd Leno

According to Sport, Liverpool youngster Cameron Brannagan is on Barcelona’s transfer radar; whilst The Sun report that Tottenham Hotspur transfer target Bernd Leno has a £12.5million release clause that will expire on Saturday.

Barcelona appear to be targeting young talent for the coming transfer window and Sport have resultantly produced a ten-man shortlist of prospects on their radar, including; Paulo Dybala, Ousmane Dembele, Samuel Umtiti, Riechedly Bazoer, Anwar El-Ghazi, Jairo Reidewald, Wendell, Jorge Mere, Adrian Marin and Liverpool’s Cameron Brannagan.

The 19-year-old has made six senior appearances for the Reds since his debut in September, as well as representing England at four occasions on youth level, and the Spanish publication revealed earlier this month that Catalan scouts have attended U21 fixtures he’s been involved in recently.

Meanwhile, The Sun report that a £12.5million release clause in Bernd Leno’s Bayer Leverkusen contract will expire on Saturday and the Bundesliga club are likely to double their valuation of the German goalkeeper thereafter.

The 24-year-old shot-stopper has attracted interest from Real Madrid and Barcelona in the past, whilst Bayer have reportedly been expecting Liverpool to activate his buy-out fee for some time, but The Sun’s latest report puts Tottenham Hotspur in the frame to swoop.

The 6 foot 3 shot-stopper is apparently unsettled at the BayArena, amid increasing tensions with his manager, but it remains to be seen if Leno would be interested in serving as understudy to Spurs No.1 Hugo Lloris.
