£100m deal for Pogba on the cards

Paul Pogba's agent Mino Raiola is set to hold talks with the Frenchman as he attempts to broker a £100m move for the star Manchester United midfielder. Pogba's relationship with Jose Mourinho has gone downhill, forcing the former Juventus man to consider a move away. Juventus and PSG are also interested in signing the World Cup-winner but Barcelona remain favourites to land his signature.

Jasper Cillessen unsure about his future

Cillessen was widely tipped to be on his way out of the club, but with not many clubs interested in the keeper, Barcelona have been unable to offload him thus far. Cillessen has served as second fiddle to Marc-Andre ter Stegen ever since arriving at the club and is seeking a move away in order to get some first-team football. "I don’t know, I don’t know how my future is,” he was quoted as saying by AS.

Valverde keen on 2 more signings

According to reports in Sport, Ernesto Valverde wants at least two more fresh faces at the club this summer. Barcelona have signed Arturo Vidal, Malcom, Clement Lenglet and Arthur Melo this window but are keen on adding further reinforcements. A central midfielder is high on their list of targets as well as a left back.

Barcelona eye Joshua Kimmich

Having completed the signing of Bayern Munich midfielder Arturo Vidal, it appears Valverde has set his sights on their right-back Joshua Kimmich. The German has had a stellar few seasons with Bayern and has attracted the attention of several top European clubs. Now, according to Don Balon, Barcelona have entered the race to sign the defender who will cost upwards of €45m.
