  • Bajcetic one for the future at Liverpool
  • Barcelona tried and failed to sign him
  • Set to head on loan to Red Bull Salzburg

  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    According to The Athletic, Barcelona made an approach for the Reds midfielder after 17-year-old Marc Bernal ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament at the weekend. However, Barca did not manage to finalise a deal - with Fabrizio Romano claiming they couldn't sign Bajcetic due to issues with financial fair play - and now he will head to Austria to finalise a season-long loan.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Bajcetic joined Liverpool from Celta Vigo in 2020 and had a breakthrough season at Anfield in 2022-23. However, an adductor injury curtailed that campaign and he made just three appearances for the first-team last term. Now, the 19-year-old will link up with former team-mate Bobby Clark - who joined Salzburg for £10 million ($13m) last week - but he is one for the future at Anfield.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Defensive midfielder Bajcetic has played for Spain at under-18 and under-21 level. The son of former Serbian footballer Srdan Bajcetic can also play at centre-back and now he will link up with former Liverpool assistant boss Pep Lijnders - who is now Salzburg's manager.
