Moussa Wague is signing for Barcelona, reports Catalan newspaper Sport on Thursday.
They don’t present it as a rumour, it’s pushed as a sure thing, and Sport even claim the player arrived at Barca facilities for a medical on Thursday morning.
The Senegalese right back will sign for the club ‘in the next few hours’.
Wague will initially play for the Barcelona B side but will train with the first team.
The longer term plan is that he can provide competition to Nelson Semedo and therefore allow Sergi Roberto to concentrate more on a midfield role.
The move would cap a brilliant summer for the 19 year old. After a good season in Belgium with Eupen he went to the World Cup with Senegal, and even managed to score a goal against Japan.
This one has largely come from nowhere.
