Barcelona jump ahead of Liverpool, Real Madrid for Moukoko

Borussia Dortmund are battling to keep hold of Youssoufa Moukoko.

Sport says Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus will join Liverpool in the race for Moukoko.

Moukoko, 17, has burst onto the Bundesliga scene this season following the departure of the Yellows' former striker Erling Haaland, who joined Manchester City for a fee of £51m in the summer.

The forward has notched six goals and six assists in 20 senior appearances this term, which has reportedly put some of Europe's biggest clubs on red-hot alert ahead of his current contract expiring next summer.

Barcelona have "already positioned themselves" in the race for his signature, while Juventus, Real Madrid and Liverpool are all expecting to keep a watchful eye on the teenager's contract situation in German in the hope they can capitalise on a deal for Dortmund's latest prodigy.
