Toni Lato could move to the Camp Nou and follow in the footsteps of Jordi Alba

Having emerged as an important figure amongst the first-team this season, the 20-year-old has made 18 appearances this season whilst contributing to two assists.

He is the latest young player to emerge from Valencia’s full-back factory, which has produced Jordi Alba, Juan Bernat and Jose Gaya in recent years.

The pacy Lato is seen as the heir to Alba in the future due to the fact he is defensively solid, intelligent and an effective team player.

The left-sided player should be entering his peak years by the time Alba is ready to leave the Camp Nou and would have no problems replacing the current club stalwart.

Jurgen Klopp has previously targeted a move for the youngster and is remains to be seen whether the Reds will turn his attention to Lato once again in the summer transfer window, as he seeks a replacement for the unconvincing Alberto Moreno.
