21-year-old Barcelona ace the only loanee who could stay at the club next season
A recent report from Mundo Deportivo has offered a detailed review of Barcelona’s prospects in the transfer market.
Barcelona already have four first-team stars in contention to depart at the end of the season, with the list including the likes of Raphinha and Ansu Fati.
But as the report, the club are also likely to offload many of the returning players, who are currently out on loan. Clement Lenglet, Abde Ezzalzouli, Alex Collado and Sergino Dest are some of the players set to return to Camp Nou this coming summer.
It appears only Abde has some form of future at Barcelona, thanks in part to his blazing performances at CA Osasuna. Joining the Pamplona outfit last summer on a season-long loan deal, the attacker has racked up six goals since, notably helping the club reach the final of the Copa Del Rey.
In light of his performances, coupled with uncertainty looming over the future of some of the star attackers in the team, Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez is open to making him a part of the first-team next season.
As for the other returning players, Barcelona are reportedly in talks with Tottenham Hotspur over a permanent move for Lenglet. Collado is likely to be sent out on loan once again after struggling with injuries during his time at Elche.
The same can be said for Nico, another player who has suffered from injury. As for Dest, he has struggled to make an impact on loan at AC Milan. Barcelona, therefore, are open to his departure, with Union Berlin emerging as one of the potential destinations.
However, it must be noted that Abde’s future away from Camp Nou has not been completely ruled out. Leeds United are interested in the player and are reportedly willing to pledge €40 million, which might too good of an offer for Barça.
