Liverpool remain highly interested in Barcelona left-back Alejandro Balde, with Chelsea and AC Milan also reportedly pushing to secure his signature in January.
The 22-year-old defender is facing growing uncertainty over his future at Camp Nou after falling down Hansi Flick’s pecking order. His reduced role has reportedly opened the door to a potential departure, with several clubs monitoring his situation closely.
Liverpool are believed to be keeping a close eye on Balde as they assess their options at left-back. His pace, attacking ability and experience at the highest level could make him an attractive option for the Reds if Barcelona become willing to negotiate a January exit.
However, Balde has not completely given up on his Barcelona career. The Spain international still wants to succeed at the Catalan club and establish himself as a key player under Flick.
Despite that desire, a January departure is now considered a genuine possibility if his playing situation does not improve.
With Liverpool, Chelsea and AC Milan all reportedly interested, Balde’s future could become one of the stories to watch closely when the January transfer window opens.
