BARCELONA are plotting a move for Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold, according to reports.
The right-back, 23, is under contract at Liverpool until 2025.
But that has not deterred Barcelona’s interest with the Spanish giants planning a transfer for the defender next summer, report Futbol Total.
Barcelona are reportedly set to bid £67million for the England star who has a market value of £94m according to Statista.
Many fans believe that is a laughable figure with some arguing Liverpool would not sell at any price.
One football fan wrote on Twitter: “Never gonna happen in a million years.”

Another added: “67M for Trent? 🤣I’m sure Liverpool would stop picking [up] their call and block the number, Brokelona stop selling part of your club.”
And a third sarcastically said: “Yeah because that’s going to go well for them ain’t it, definitely see Liverpool accepting this one!”
Another tweeted: “Why would he downgrade from his childhood club?”
Barcelona have big plans despite their precarious financial situation which has left them unable to register new signings.
