Barcelona know they will struggle to secure the players they want in the summer, so far declared a defensive midfielder, a left winger and the continuation of Joao Felix and Joao Cancelo. However, one of the avenues they will explore apart from making big sales is to lower the price of targets by offering players in exchange.
Their main target for the midfield role currently appears to be Everton's Amadou Onana. The Senegalese is Xavi Hernandez's top choice and sporting director Deco is also interested in him.
However, the Blaugrana's €45m cap for a move falls far short of the €60m Everton want as a minimum for the 22-year-old.
As a result, according to the newspaper Sports, they will offer Everton players like Ansu Fati, Clement Lenglet, Sergino Dest or Fermin Lopez.
The latter has been in inspired form of late, scoring against Napoli and Atletico Madrid in their best week of the season, and the Catalan daily continue to say that his aim is to continue at Barcelona if it can happen. .
Meanwhile, Onana is aware of Barcelona's interest in him, among the words that Manchester United and Arsenal could also move for him. He is excited by the prospect of playing for Barcelona, and they will be one of his priorities this summer, but he will consider other options.
The Blaugrana have had a number of players in recent transfers who are clearly up for sale, with the priority being to get them off the market before they lose value. This appears to be the case for Fati, Destin and Lenglet, and as a result, Everton are unlikely to drop Onana's price by a significant amount for those players. /Telegraph/
