Mohamed Salah is keen on moving to Barcelona after Ronald Koeman made the Liverpool man a main target this summer.
The Egypt international has been pivotal to Jurgen Klopp’s success at Anfield.
With the former Roma star firing in front of goal, the Reds have landed their first-ever Premier League title, as well as the Champions League.
In 154 appearances, Salah has scored 97 – including a hat-trick on Saturday as Liverpool downed newly-promoted Leeds United.
But Klopp now faces a battle to keep hold of his free-scoring forward, with Barcelona interested in his services.
Koeman has taken over at the Nou Camp and has plans on bringing back the glory years.
However, he is aware a squad overhaul is necessary and Salah is top of his wish list.
That is according to close pal and football agent Sjaak Swart, who also represents new Manchester United star Donny van de Beek.
He also stated that Salah wants to leave Anfield, telling website voetbalzone.nl: “I know Koeman wants him – and I know Salah would like to go.”

It will come as a huge blow to Liverpool’s hopes of retaining the title this season and without Salah, they would not have won their humdinger of a match against Leeds on Saturday.
