- Sport say that the Premier League club have made it clear to the representatives of Tello that they are willing to meet his buy-out clause, of just €10m, and bring him over to Merseyside.
- Sport say that Tello's camp have used Liverpool's offer to push Barcelona for more assurances about his future. They explain that there has been no bluffing about Liverpool's intentions, that the club have genuinely made a move and Tello is not just using this as leverage with Barcelona.
- Sport are convinced that the player with continue with Barcelona for at least another year. His situation is different to that of Thiago, in that Tello has little chance of being part of the senior Spain squad for next year's World Cup in Brazil. He is yet to make his debut for the full national team, but was part of their Olympic squad last year. Therefore, the player has no great need to rush and is only 21 years old.
- Sport say that Tello has not been seduced by the offer of more minutes and more money on Merseyside. They claim 'for now' he'll continue but wants to use the Liverpool interest to negotiate a new contract.
- Tello is currently on a low wage by Premier League standards and he has been getting bonuses for games played in the first team, but hasn't had as many of those as he would have wanted, Basically, he wants more money and his camp have made Barcelona aware that Liverpool are willing to offer that and meet his buy-out clause. Barcelona in turn are on the point of offering a new contract to up his wages and change the clause, which leaves a small window for Liverpool to convince him.
- If Barcelona don't think Tello can get extra minutes next season, especially with the arrival of Neymar, then a loan deal could be something which suits the player and club, whether Liverpool would be interested in such a scenario isn't covered.
- The links go back to nearly a year ago, when there was talk of a loan deal. The Liverpool Echo were so confident that in August they said 'The deal for Barcelona winger Tello should also go through shortly, with managing director Ian Ayre having flown to Spain to finalise negotiations.'
- Article adds that we're still interested despite the signing of Luis Alberto
