Barcelona like Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves but the idea of a swap deal for Nico Gonzalez has been rejected by the Catalans.
That’s according to journalist Helena Condis, who says the notion was dismissed by Barcelona in a meeting with Jorge Mendes today.
The super-agent is meeting with Barcelona to discuss various transfer possibilities this summer, including Manchester City’s Bernardo Silva, who has been named as a target.
He and several Portuguese stars could be put on the table by Mendes, and Neves, who is widely expected to leave Wolves this year, is one of them.
And it seems a deal was proposed, too, with the idea of swapping Neves for Nico proposed to those in charge at the Nou Camp.
However, despite Barcelona being fans of Neves, ‘there can be no barter with Nico’ as Barca ‘don’t want to sell’ him or Alejandro Balde.
One of them could be Wolves star Neves and contacts have been initiated with Mendes, but a swap deal will absolutely not be happening.
💥 Informa @HelenaCondis sobre la reunión Mendes – @JoanLaportaFCB
🇵🇹 @rubendsneves_ gusta como mediocentro, pero no puede haber trueque con Nico. El Barça no lo quiere vender ni a él ni a Balde
🤔 Laporta pide calma, encontrarán soluciones y podrán fichar
