  "account": "Reports from Spain suggest that Liverpool may be interested in signing Barcelona's young right back Héctor Fort, although other clubs such as Inter Milan, Fulham, and Tottenham are also rumored to be after the player. Fort, who currently has 24 senior first-team appearances, mostly in the 2024-25 season, spent last season on loan at Elche. Previously considered a future star at right back for Barcelona, recent shifts in opinion have seen fellow prospect Xavi Espart emerge as the more likely long-term choice, leading to Fort reportedly becoming available on the transfer market. Everton is reported to be the most likely club to sign Fort.",
