Liverpool may end up losing Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona in the winter transfer window but the latest reports are very intriguing.
According to Spanish source Don Balon, Liverpool have taken Barca by surprise and have asked to include Sergi Roberto in a swap deal for Coutinho.
The Spanish source have mentioned that Liverpool have the approval of Klopp, who is a huge admirer of the Spanish international, mainly because he is a versatile talent, who can operate in the midfield and also in the defense.

Don Balon claim that this request from the Merseysiders is a blow to the Catalan giants because Roberto is a key member of the side.
Barca have been trying to renew Sergi’s contract but that has not happened as yet. His current deal with the club will expire in 2019 and it has a release clause of 40 million euros ($48million), which in today’s market is not a huge one (FCB).
In the current campaign, Roberto has featured in 17 games in all competitions, scored 1 goal and provided 4 assists. Last season, he mainly played in the right back position under Enrique and the situation has not changed much under Valverde as well.
Liverpool do not really need a right back and as far herrera as the midfield is concerned, Sergi is not good enough to replace Coutinho. In your opinion, should Klopp complete this swap deal?
