Ahead of each transfer window, the Catalan press will pick a selection of Barcelona fringe players who could be sold, and then endlessly link them with Premier League clubs.
Wolves have been brought into the picture in recent windows, and them signing Nelson Semedo will only encourage the idea of future business between the two clubs.
Sunday’s edition of Sport opens up the Junior Firpo file again, and Wolves get a mention. According to the latest claims, Nuno Espirito Santo’s side, along with West Ham, have initiated contact over signing the Barcelona player.
Ronald Koeman doesn’t rate Junior, and therefore Barcelona are ready to listen to proposals for the fullback. The Camp Nou side are looking for a minimum of €22m, with Real Betis due 10% of the transfer fee.
Wolves are said to ‘have money to invest’.
Junior Firpo is a 24-year-old left-back who can also play on the left of midfield. Given Rayan Aït-Nouri was signed in the summer, there would surely have to be a departure for this one to make sense.
