Liverpool are reportedly pushing to sign Barcelona duo Abel Ruiz and Juan Miranda.
Several youth signings have made their way to the Reds in recent weeks including Falkirk’s Tony Gallacher and Colombian defender Anderson Arroyo.
Now, Anfield chiefs have turned their attention to prising away two of Barcelona’s most promising talents according to reports in Catalonia.
Mundo Deportivo claim that Liverpool are among several clubs around Europe attempting to lure La Masia graduates Ruiz and Miranda to Merseyside.
A meeting is said to have taken place between the club, Ruiz and his representatives during last October’s Under-17 World Cup in India.
Miranda has also attracted interest from Liverpool despite attempts by Barcelona to tie the left-back to a new long-term contract at the Nou Camp.
Talks are already scheduled by Barca in efforts to convince the pair that their respective futures lie with the current La Liga leaders.
