Liverpool have agreed a deal to sign Barcelona central defender Yerry Mina on a season-long loan.

According to ElChiringuitoTV, via LFC Transfer Room, Liverpool and Barcelona have reached an agreement over the signing of Mina ahead of next season.

The report states that Mina will become a Liverpool player at the start of the upcoming transfer window, joining on loan.

Mina joined Barcelona in January for €11.8m but has only made three appearances for the club thus far.

The Colombian defender has been unable to usurp Gerard Pique or Samuel Umtiti for a place in the side.

He now looks set to be competing with Dejan Lovren and Joel Matip for a starting place alongside Virgil Van Dijk in the Liverpool defence.

Jurgen Klopp may look to explore the possibility of a buy-out clause in the loan deal, with it appearing odd that the club would sign a defender on loan.
