Barcelona make moves for pair of superstars

Barcelona are ready to move for Antoine Griezmann next summer and are willing to pay €100 million to land the Atletico Madrid star, reports Mundo Deportivo.
 
The French international is apparently encouraged by the interest from the Catalans, who have already expressed their interest in sealing a deal for the 26-year-old, which the newspaper has dubbed as their 'Operation Griezmann'.
 
Additionally, the Blaugrana will make a €150 million move for Liverpool's Philippe Coutinho in January, €50m less than what the Reds supposedly asked for the Brazil international in the summer, according to the same media outlet.
 
The 25-year-old requested to leave Anfield in favour of Camp Nou prior to the 2017-18 season, though Liverpool was not interested in selling the playmaker at the time. Barca will move again for Coutinho in the winter transfer market in hope Jurgen Klopp and his team will be tempted into letting the attacker leave.
