Barcelona & Liverpool Head the Market
Liverpool’s busy summer transfer window, which saw Alexander Isak, Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, Hugo Ekitike and Milos Kerkez arrive at Anfield, has only strengthened their chances of defending their Premier League crown and challenging for European honours.
Barcelona, meanwhile, remain formidable and are expected to make a deep run, having strengthened their squad in the close season.
PSG (13/2) are not far behind the two joint favourites after their victory over Inter Milan in last season’s final.
The French champions boast Ousmane Dembélé, currently the front-runner for the 2025 Ballon d’Or, and will be determined to prove they can win back-to-back titles.
