  Per Sky Sports journalist Florian Plettenberg, the Catalan giants want the 22-year-old on an initial season-long loan deal but with an obligation to buy in 2025, depending on the number of minutes he plays next season. The transfer fee next year could be in the region of €20m-€23m (£16m/$21m-£19m/$24m).

He played a key role in his club finishing seventh in the league as they missed out on a playoff slot by just three points.
