Barcelona are seen as the biggest threat to swoop Real Betis star – sources

Nabil Fekir has been one of La Liga’s standout players this season. His heroics on the field has been one of the key pillars in Real Betis’ phenomenal run in the league that sees them placed third in the standings.

Unsurprisingly, his consistent high-level performances have attracted interest from several top European clubs and his future at the Andalusian side seems uncertain.

According to reports from MARCA, Barcelona are the biggest threat that could see Fekir depart the Benito Villamarin in the summer. However, numerous other clubs are said to be interested too.

In just 22 starts for his team in the league, Fekir has scored six goals and provided as many assists. He has created 11 big chances and averages a whopping 2.6 key passes every ninety minutes.

Needless to say, Real Betis will not let their star depart easily. The Seville-based side are said to be seeking around €100 million for the French international, a figure that does not sit well with the Barcelona offices.

From the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspurs are the side with the highest chance of signing the forward. The list of suitors does not end there, as Juventus and AC Milan are also eyeing a possible move for the former Lyon player.

Barça Universal’s thoughts

Fekir’s personal desire to move to Barcelona could play a role in lowering the fee involved. Yet, it would appear that there is very little scope for the Frenchman to break into the Barcelona starting lineup.

With the forward department no longer the priority, one would assume that the Catalans would let the chance pass.
