Barcelona chase €80m La Liga midfielder
Horwever, should the move break down, and PSG decide to keep hold of their Italian midfielder, Barca will look to Atletico Madrid’s Saul Niguez as an option, with the price tag thought to be 80 million EURO, according to AS via Sports Keeda.
Rumours are circulating that Iniesta is looking for a change. The midfielder has been with the club since youth level and believes that the La Liga giants should start to bring in fresh faces for the benefit of the club.
Barcelona will be handed a tough test in the way of signing Verratti, with the Ligue 1 side not willing to get him go at this point or, at least, until the price is right.
So Saul – who scored a hat-trick for Spain in the Under-21 Championships, knocking Italy out and sending Spain to the the final – would be the next viable option for Barca.
