Barcelona take U-turn with La Masia graduate, open to hearing offers
Barcelona haven't been very active in the summer transfer window. They have roped in Joan Garcia from Espanyol and are chasing Athletic Bilbao's Nico Williams.
However, recent updates have suggested that Barcelona's move to Williams has stalled as his agent wants a guarantee of Barcelona's ability to register him for the 2025/26 season.
This has also led to the Catalans softening their stance for La Masia star Fermin Lopez, as they are willing to listen to offers for the young midfielder, as per reports via SPORT.
Earlier, when Bayern Munich approached Barcelona for the youngster, Barcelona blocked all the moves as they were unwilling to allow him to depart Camp Nou.
Fermin has signed a long-term contract with Barcelona, keeping him at the club until 2029. But in recent years, his gametime situation is gradually getting unclear with players like Pedri, Frenkie De Jong, Dani Olmo, and even potentially Raphinha occupying central roles.
While Hansi Flick admires Fermin, the Catalans are stacked in midfield positions, and if they sign a new midfielder, he will also demand minutes.
