Barcelona is not the only club in Europe that is preparing for a summer of change this year; other clubs are doing the same thing. Jurgen Klopp, the head coach of Liverpool, will also be leaving his position at the end of the season. This is something that can be said about Liverpool.
There is a widespread expectation that Mohamed Salah will also depart from Anfield, with the Egyptian player most likely relocating to Saudi Arabia.
The possibility of Salah leaving Liverpool will, without a doubt, compel the club to make a frantic effort to find suitable replacements on the market.
Liverpool is interested in the Barcelona duo
SPORT, a Spanish news agency, has reported that Liverpool may not look much farther than Barcelona in order to find a replacement for Mo Salah. This is in agreement with the previous statement.
It would appear that the Premier League heavyweights have picked Raphinha and Ansu Fati as two individuals who have the ability to take Salah’s spot at Anfield.
Taking into consideration the fact that Barcelona is in critical need of a high-dollar sale during the summer in order to get new players to sign with the club, this can be considered a significant development.

It is commonly believed that Ronald Araujo is one of the players that could leave the club during the summer. Bayern Munich is still interested in acquiring his services, and this speculation has been widely spread.
On the other hand, it seems like Raphinha and Fati could also be possibilities. There is a significant demand for the former in England, and Tottenham is also interested in acquiring his services. It has been reported that the Lilywhites had even offered one hundred million euros for the Brazilian international player.
Fati, a Spaniard, had a tremendous amount of potential; nevertheless, his development has been slowed down by the multiple injuries he has sustained. Even during his current loan stint at Brighton this season, he has struggled with injuries over the course of his career.
However, Liverpool is certain that they will be able to fully realize Fati’s potential and transform him into an excellent substitute for Salah.
Barcelona, on the other hand, will not be opposed to the idea of permanently releasing Fati and utilizing the money to pursue new players on the market. It is also possible to say the same thing about Raphinha. When it comes to these two Barcelona attackers, however, only time will tell what the future holds for them.
