DBasia.news – Barcelona midfielder, Ivan Rakitic, is getting closer to Juventus. The Croatian national team player no longer has a place in Barcelona’s first team.
Rakitic is rumored to be leaving Barcelona since the 2019 summer transfer window opened.
However, the transfer had stalled because of two causes. First, Juventus do not have sufficient funds to bring in Rakitic. La Vecchia Signora needs to let go of a number of players first.
However, now Ivan Rakitic’s opportunity to head to Juventus is opened again. As Rakitic ia no longer a mainstay of Ernesto Valverde.
Valverde’s assistant, Jon Aspiazu, had a chance to get questions about the decision to reserve Rakitic. The assistant did not say much, but made a clear statement: “We prefer other options,” Aspiazu explained.
