# Liverpool ready to snatch impressive Barcelona winger

![Cristian Tello](https://cdn.footballtransfertavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Cristian-Tello-500x337.jpg)Liverpool fans in the Transfer Tavern have endured a topsy-turvy season and they’ve made it quite clear they want to find some level footing in 2016, as they discuss what signings they want to be made over a few pints.

Glasses were raised in celebration after they read reports that indicate an impressive deal is on the cards, [with *Mundo Deportivo* stating Liverpool are ready to beat Porto to the signature of Cristian Tello.](https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20151212/30754977021/el-ko-del-porto-complica-el-futuro-de-tello.html)

The talented wide-man is in the second-year of his loan with Porto and his agreement with parent club Barcelona is that [the move can be made permanent for an agreed price of £9m.](https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20151212/30754977021/el-ko-del-porto-complica-el-futuro-de-tello.html)

However, Porto are dragging their heels in regards to a permanent deal and [Jurgen Klopp wants to jump to the front of the queue for the 24-year-old](https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20151212/30754977021/el-ko-del-porto-complica-el-futuro-de-tello.html), who was very highly-rated in his youth days at Barcelona.

Competition for places in Catalonia forced his exit though and Tello will be available for a cut-price, which would present a shrewd piece of business for Klopp.
