Adrien Rabiot is on Liverpool's radar for a swoop later this season, according to reports.

The French midfielder has continually been linked with a move away from the Ligue 1 champions and it is claimed Jurgen Klopp is a keen admirer.

But Liverpool will now have to wait until at least January to be able to complete a deal after the transfer window closed for Premier League clubs.

It presents a problem for the Reds, with Barcelona still reportedly considering a move this summer.

“It’s not certain if Adrien stays at PSG. It all depends on him,” PSG boss Thomas Tuchel said following the 3-0 win over Caen on Sunday.

“For me he’s a great player. He can grow even more and become a top player.”

L'Equipe claim that Liverpool are hoping to land Rabiot on a pre-contract agreement in January, with a view to him joining next summer.

Rabiot has just one year left on his current deal at PSG and will be allowed to speak to Premier League and La Liga clubs following the turn of the year.

But Liverpool are allegedly fearful that their plans will be scuppered if Rabiot has his head turned by Barcelona this summer.
