Luis Enrique has named his Paris Saint-Germain squad to face Aston Villa in Wednesday's UEFA Super Cup, with Liverpool targets Bradley Barcola and Ibrahim Mbaye selected.
Barcola has been linked with a move to Liverpool throughout the summer, with reports suggesting that the player himself has given the green light to move to Merseyside.
Akliouche was also named in PSG's squad to take on Villa in the Super Cup at Red Bull Arena, while Lucas Digne could be in line to make his second debut for the Parisiens against his previous employers.
PSG are looking to become just the fourth team to retain the European/UEFA Super Cup, after Ajax (1973, 1974), Milan (1989, 1990) and Real Madrid (2016, 2017).
This is PSG's third Super Cup appearance, losing 9-2 on aggregate to Juventus in 1997 (1-6 home, 1-3 away) and beating Tottenham 4-3 on penalties after a 2-2 draw last year.
