Liverpool are interested in buying Barcelona forward Bojan Krkic for £17million. Publication Sport comments that despite the Merseyside club adding two strikers in the January transfer window in the form of Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez, they remain on the hunt for attacking talent.

As a result, they have identified the Barca product as a potential addition, and are willing to spend up to €20 million (£17m) to prise the 20-year-old from the Nou Camp.

Pep Guardiola has said that he is not concerned about the poor form of Bojan Krkic. The young Spanish international was awarded with the number nine jersey at the Camp Nou during the summer and also rewarded with a contract extension through the summer of 2015.

However, Bojan Krkic has managed just three goals in 16 appearances this season for the Blaugrana, and has failed to produce his best form in much of his outings.

Bojan Krkic has signed a new contract extension with Barcelona. The 20-year-old agreed a three-season addition to his former deal with the Spanish champions, committing his future to the club and warding off interest from other interested parties from Serie A and the Premier League.

Speaking to Sport after confirming the contract, the Spanish Football international said he hoped to develop his game further under the stewardship of coach Pep Guardiola.

Bojan Krkic has made a successful return from injury and could feature in the upcoming Barcelona games. The Catalan boss Josep Guardiola decided to play an experimental team against a tough looking Russian side Rubin Kazan. The Spanish coach simply knew that his side were going to the next round with flying colours as they were to stay at the top of the points table no matter what the result was. Josep Guardiola decided to give the “European” experience to the young guns of Barcelona and 10 reserve team players featured during the game at Nou Camp.

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola has said that he didn't lose the faith in Bojan Krkic even though the striker had some difficult times. Bojan was on target twice in Barca's 8-0 away win against Almeria in the Spanish Primera Division. He had been struggling for goals at the start of the season but has now began to find the opposition's net with regularity, making Guardiola pleased.

Andreas Iniesta says that Barcelona never doubted their abilities and were confident of returning to form.The dominant Blaugrana had to come from a goal behind as Sidney Govou gave the Greeks a surprise lead but Lionel Messi responded immediately and later netted a second with David Villa, Pedro and Daniel Alves also getting amongst the goals.

Bojan Krkic says that he is ready to feature more for Barcelona by stepping up his game. With the Swedish international having left the Camp Nou to join AC Milan on loan, 20-year-old forward Bojan is looking forward to having more opportunities to feature for the first-team.

New signing David Villa will spearhead the Catalan giants’ attacking line this season, but Bojan believes that, with fewer attacking players at the club, he will still have more opportunity to impose himself in Pep Guardiola’s side.

Bojan Krkic has revealed that he is ready to step up and show that Barcelona will not miss Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Bojan Krkic feels he has a bigger chance of regular football at Barcelona this season.

The striker can see an opening following Zlatan Ibrahimovic's move to AC Milan.

"Without Ibrahimovic there will be an increase in minutes, not only for me but for everyone because there are fewer up front," said Krkic.

"With Zlatan here, he is a high level player, it would have been more complicated. I prefer to focus on me, trust my possibilities and the opportunities I will have."
