Report: Barcelona striker to choose between three transfer offers following Koeman’s decision

As per reports from Mundo Deportivo, there has been progress concerning the potential transfer of Barcelona’s striker Rey Manaj. The Albanian international’s future will reportedly be resolved after tonight’s game against Getafe.

The saga of Manaj’s transfer has been ongoing for the past few months. Since the commencement of the transfer window, the forward has been linked to a host of clubs.

The Barcelona B player reportedly has three options on the table. Mallorca, Rayo Vallecano and Germany’s Freiburg are said to be the three clubs lining up for his signature.

The first two options provide the Albanian to continue his football career in Spain without a drastic change in surroundings. Rayo Vallecano would be a better option for Manaj in terms of playing time, though it includes the risk of potential relegation to the Segunda if current standing is anything to go by.

Freiburg, on the other hand, has been off to a great start in the Bundesliga. The German side currently sits third in the league after two wins and a draw in their opening three games. Though moving to a new league can be a challenge, the Albanian is no stranger to such a situation.

Manaj has been once again included in the first-team squad ahead of tonight’s game against Getafe. The decision of his future lies in the hands of Ronald Koeman. If the manager does not count on the player, the club will look to speed up his departure to one of the interested parties.

Moreover, his departure will permanently open up the #14 shirt for Phillipe Coutinho to take up during the season.
