Theo Hernandez' move to Barcelona is a deal that's all but done according to reports. Spanish radio station Onda Cero claim that Barcelona are not happy with their current left-back, Jordi Alba and are looking for a replacement.

Real Madrid were also interested in signing the Atletico Madrid full-back, but Atletico were not ready to sell him to their derby rivals. That paved the way for Barcelona to hold talks with the player and also agree a deal with Los Rojiblancos.

The left-back has a release clause of €24 million, but the clubs have reportedly agreed a fee lower than that. Some reports suggest that Barcelona have even offered Jordi Alba to Atletico on loan for the deal.
