“De Ligt is once again a priority for Barcelona”

Matthijs de Ligt sounds again for Barcelona. The old goal of the Catalans, according to ‘The Gazzetta dello Sport’, has once again become a priority for the next summer market, where a defender with a future will be sought.

The Barça already tried to take control of the services of the central in 2019, when he also incorporated De Jong. Juventus, however, managed to win that battle with a significant investment, 75 million plus 10 in variables, plus a five-year contract that will eventually reach a net salary of 12 million.

In the agreement between Vecchia Signora and the defender, however, there is a release clause of 125 million, while, for the Italian newspaper, There is no version of 75 ‘kilos’ exclusive for Barça that was talked about.

There are contacts and a specific interest, although it is impossible for the operation to be carried out in January. Mino Raiola dropped the intention of taking the player to another team (“he’s ready to take another step, he thinks so too”) and playing for Barça is a great temptation, but in Italy they wonder How would the culés do to invest the 125 million that Juve will ask for that transfer. At the moment, there is no answer, but surprises are not ruled out.
