Yves Bissouma would be a better fit at Liverpool rather than Newcastle or Aston Villa, according to John Barnes.
Reports have suggested the Premier League trio have made the Brighton midfielder a summer transfer window target following his impressive form for the side he joined from Lille in 2018.
Reds boss Jurgen Klopp was reportedly impressed by the 25-year-old's performance in the Seagulls' surprise 2-2 draw at Anfield in October.
And Barnes, who won three league titles during a decade at Liverpool, believes Bissouma would suit his former side more than the two top-flight sides also in for him.
