Marc Cucurella expressed openness to a potential move to Barcelona while considering his family's needs and current commitment to Chelsea.
Barcelona must approach the game on Sunday like champions. Winning trophies isn't about having your best players available at all times. It's about having the grit and character to do whatever it takes to get a result when it matters most.
Barcelona has moved to increase the release clauses of their youngsters to prevent a repeat of the Dro saga. Youth players will start off with a release clause of €6m but that will increase to €8m if they debut in the Youth League and €10m if they play for Barcelona Atletic.
"I told him that the most important thing is to be his friend. Hansi needs trust. It's clear he put that into practice, because things are working out and Hansi is doing a great job."
Inter Milan have begun planning for the possible departure of Alessandro Bastoni to Barcelona, drawing up a list of reinforcements ahead of next season. The 26-year-old Italian international is the priority target for the Blaugrana heading into the summer transfer window.
"I did what I had to do. Leo was nearing the end of his career and we needed to build a new team. Would I have liked to build the new team with Leo's help? Yes. We tried, but it wasn't to be."
If they had done what needed to be done, it would have been perfectly possible to renew Leo Messi's contract and sign players. It wasn't the legacy's fault, but rather 'financial fair play', because the new board inflated the losses to €555 million.
The standout feature of the design is the return of the mint tone, officially referred to as 'Green Frost.' This colour has a special place in Barcelona's kit history, having first appeared in the 1990s before making occasional comebacks over the years.
I was already eager to leave PSV; I wanted new challenges. Then Barcelona came along, which, with all due respect to Madrid, is the best club in the world. I signed a three-year contract, but I barely played during the 1993-94 season, and in January 1995, I left.
