Barcelona Willing to Lose Two Players at Once

DBasia.news – Barcelona will most likely release two players at once, namely Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who is currently being approached by Chelsea. In addition there is the name Memphis Depay which shows a positive signal to Juventus.

Unlike Aubameyang, Barcelona have been asking for Depay’s departure for a long time. The player is not included in manager Xavi Hernandez’s plans this season.

Juventus became one of the teams most interested in accommodating the 28-year-old player. The Bianconeri moved quickly to secure Depay.

However, the continuation of the negotiations took place quite slowly. Juventus and Depay had only reached a personal agreement a few days earlier, then Barcelona and Juventus would soon reach an agreement.

The letter of freedom was the way out for the two teams to complete the Depay transfer.

The release letter intends to terminate Depay’s contract at Barcelona. Currently, the Dutch national team player still has a contract until the end of the 2023 season.

Despite agreeing to a letter of release, Mundo Deportivo reports that Juventus will have to pay around 5 million euros to Barcelona.

However, there were problems left before Depay actually left Barcelona. This is related to salary.

Tuttosport explained that Barcelona owed Depay a salary. The total is 2 million Euros.

Depay wants the debt to be paid before signing the release letter.

Xavi has asked Barcelona to only sell one of Depay and Aubameyang. However, there is the potential for Barcelona to be forced to release the two players at the same time.

Negotiation talks between Depay and Juventus progressed quickly. Finalization should be done before the transfer window closes.

Likewise with Aubameyang who has reached a personal agreement with Chelsea. Barcelona, ​​although not prioritizing the departure of Aubameyang, is believed to be profitable because it can clear the salary budget.
