Long thought to be the future of Barcelona’s front line behind the likes of Neymar, Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi, Munir’s future currently looks away from the Nou Camp.

The young Spanish forward, whose potential replacement, Paco Alcacer, could arrive in Barcelona if Valencia and the La Liga champions reach an agreement, is of interest to Spurs, according to Sport. Screen Shot 2016-08-25 at 11.27.17

Ideally, Valencia would like to include Munir in any deal regarding their young striker, meaning they’d be willing to reduce their demands if he came the other way, but the player isn’t enthralled about a move to the Mestalla.

Gary Neville’s former side are also happy to include a buy back clause (as seems to be the requirement for any transfer Barcelona make regarding one of their youngsters).

Down Tottenham’s end, the situation is a bit different.

The Premier League club are more than happy to meet Barcelona’s demands of €15m for the 20-year-old, but the stumbling block remains the buy-back clause.

Pochettino and co. are reluctant to see one included, just in case the player explodes in England, which is understandable.

As things stand, both clubs are at a bit of an impasse, but it seems that all that is needed is for one club to compromise just a little bit, and we could have a transfer on our hands.

It’s worth pointing out Spurs and Valencia aren’t the only clubs interested in the young forward, as both Celta Vigo and Schalke 04 are currently observing the situation.
