Liverpool is preparing an offer of 70 million euros to sign Jules Koundé, one of Hansi Flick's rejects at FC Barcelona. Liverpool's next transfer target aims to strengthen their defensive rotation.

According to Football Insider, the Anfield board believes that an offer close to 70 million euros could be sufficient to start talks with the Catalan club, although there are currently no official negotiations underway.

Defensive Issues at Anfield and Jules Koundé's Versatility

The English club is looking for a right-back due to the extended absence of Conor Bradley until next year, the poor performance of Jeremie Frimpong, the potential departure of Joe Gomez at the end of the season, and Ronald Araújo's role as a pure center-back, who is on loan from Barcelona. The 27-year-old French international, who joined Camp Nou in 2022 from Sevilla for a fixed fee of 50 million euros plus variables, fits the plans due to his ability to play both as a full-back and a center-back.

Koundé's situation in Spain has changed under Hansi Flick, playing only 4 matches in LaLiga this season, being on the bench in the last three games, and completing 90 minutes only once in the domestic league against Rayo Vallecano and against Feyenoord in the Champions League.

FC Barcelona's Position and Competition in the Premier League

Despite British interest, FC Barcelona would only consider a sale if they receive a very high economic offer, supported by the player's contract with the club until June 2030. Apart from Liverpool's interest, Premier League clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, and Manchester City are monitoring the defender's situation for the winter transfer window.

Although reports suggest that the player rejected an initial approach from Anfield to focus on reclaiming his starting spot in Spain, the lack of playing time could change his stance midway through the season.

Liverpool's Financial Planning for the Transfer

Liverpool's board is assessing the feasibility of making a formal offer that matches the 70 million euros set in their internal estimates. The club's financial availability allows for an investment of that scale during the January window without breaching financial limits.

The British executives believe that the urgent need to cover the right-back position justifies the economic expenditure on an established profile in European football. Liverpool's scouts will observe Jules Koundé's performance with FC Barcelona during the official matches in November and December 2026.

If Koundé does not reclaim his starring role at FC Barcelona under Hansi Flick, Liverpool will make their first formal offer in the winter transfer market.
