Barcelona want to keep Vidal at least until June
Barcelona are keen on keeping their Chilean midfielder Arturo Vidal until the summer at the very least, according to a report from Sport. Both Inter and Manchester United have asked about the availability of the player but neither the club nor Ernesto Valverde want to part with the former Juventus star.
The Spaniard sees Vidal as an essential part of the squad since he provides physicality in the middle and could be an important figure in difficult matches, which is why he is going to be kept at least until the summer.
