Barcelona are willing to offer Fermin Lopez in exchange for the Premier League transfer target

Barcelona knows that it will have a hard time to secure the pieces they want in the summer, so far declared to be a pivot in the midfield, a left winger and the continuity of Joao Felix and Joao Cancelo. However, one of the ways they will discover, in addition to making major sales, is to lower the price of the targets by offering them to the players.

His main target for the pivot role is currently Everton's Amadou Onana. The Senegalese is the first choice of Xavi Hernandez and the Director Sporting Deco is also very fond of him. However, the Blaugrana's €45m cap for a move falls well short of the €60m Everton want as a minimum for the 22-year-old.

Accordingly, they will offer as Ansu Fati, Clement Lenglet, Sergino Dest or Fermin Lopez to Evertonas for Sport. The latter has been in inspired form of late, scoring against Napoli and Atletico Madrid in his best week of the season, and the Catalan newspaper continues to say that his intention is to continue at Barcelona anyway .

Onana meanwhile is aware of the interest in him from Barcelona, ​​amid talk that Manchester United and Arsenal could also move for him. He is excited at the prospect of playing for Barcelona, ​​and they will be one of the priorities for him this summer, but he is considering other options.

The Blaugrana have had a number of players in recent seasons who have clearly been for sale, with the priority being to move them rather than getting value for them. That seems to be the case for Fati, Dest and Lenglet, and therefore Everton are unlikely to lower Onana's price by a significant amount for those players.
