Meant to be a part of Didier Deschamps’ squad for the 2016 Euros thanks to his ability to cover at left-back, Jérémy Mathieu eventually missed out on the competition due to injury.

Bought by Barcelona from Valencia in 2014, the 32-year-old has been a solid rotation option for the La Liga champions, but the arrival of Samuel Umtiti this summer may have changed his standing in the team.

This is why France Football in their weekly edition reckon the French defender could be on his way out of Barcelona, and even reckon there’s an 85% chance of that happening.

Close to a move to Besiktas, the recent events in Turkey have allegedly made him change his mind and a move elsewhere seems more likely.

Taking his time to find the right team, France Football claim the Premier League could be a viable destination, especially since Liverpool have reportedly enquired about his availability.

This could, of course, be for the spot recently filled by Estonian centre-back Ragnar Klavan, meaning they’re not that interested anymore, but who knows what Jürgen Klopp has up his sleeves these days?
