Barcelona are set to complete the transfer of Philippe Coutinho from Liverpool for 130million pounds, according to reports from Spain.
It is also said that they’re ready to splash 89million pounds for Antoine Griezmann in the summer.
But that’s not all. Mundo Deportivo are reporting that the Catalan giants are ready to make surprising move for another world-class midfielder.
It’s Bayern Munich’s Thiago Alcantara the player who Barca are ready to land after selling him to the Bavarians years ago.
Alcantara produced some excellent performances under the guidance of Pep Guardiola and Thiago Alcantara, establishing himself as one of the best midfielders in the world.
But he could cost alot as he has just signed a new contract with Bayern which keeps him at Allianz Arena until April 2021.
Also, his potential arrival, as well as Coutinho, would likely prove devastating to Barca legend Andres Iniesta, who recently agreed a ‘lifetime contract’ with the club.
The ageing Spaniard is still one of the finest in the business and signing two players to compete with him for his place in the squad will certainly not go down to well.
