The agreement between Inter and Dinamo Zagreb, which owns the player's rights, is already closed. According to reports, the deal is worth around €2.5 million as a fixed fee, with a further €2 million included in performance-based add-ons. Inter's move stands out not only because they beat Barcelona to the signing, but also because they moved faster than RB Salzburg.
It is no secret that Hansi Flick is deeply involved in Barcelona's day-to-day affairs, even when it comes to monitoring the club's youth players. A shrewd operator, Flick often likes to monitor key matches for Barcelona's reserve team, as he considers La Masia to be a great source of talent for the first team. Flick's commitment to FC Barcelona's youth development knows no rest days either.
Now, according to journalist Guillem Borras Perez, Flick called up Barcelona midfield prospect Tommy Marques to first-team training today. The La Masia gem received the call-up on a special occasion as he is celebrating his birthday today, having turned 19 years old, and he got to do so with the senior team. An exciting talent, Marques is a pivot midfielder who has become a permanent fixture in Juliano Belletti's Barça Atletic setup this season, featuring in eight matches so far.
