Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports that Marcos Alonso has reached an agreement on personal terms with Barcelona to join the club next season. It just needs Chelsea to give his departure a green light by allowing Barca to sign him at a lower price.
Marcos Alonso is determined to return to La Liga in his home country and has agreed on personal terms with Barcelona next season. This is information provided by the famous journalist to refer Fabrizio Romano on his Twitter page. It remains to be seen whether Chelsea will allow his departure as his contract expires in 2023.
Barca’s board plan to get him for a very small fee. The reason is that they can negotiate to get him free from January. For Chelsea to sell him at least a certain amount of money before this can happen, he will need to reach an agreement with the Spanish club.
So, football is on the court of Chelsea, a club that has recently come under new ownership. Once the paperwork is done, those in charge of the club will be able to sit down with Joan Laporta and her colleagues to tell them if they would be happy to let Marcos Alonso go for a lower price.
This would make sense as the Spanish defender has been at Chelsea since the 2016-17 season and has shown, every year, his commitment to the team. In addition, his market value has plummeted and is now 11.9 million euros. That amount is not enough to reach an agreement with Barcelona.
Barcelona is stepping up its transfer window ahead of next summer’s transfer window. Having reportedly received the help of Franck Kessie and Andreas Christensen for free transfers, the Catalans are now in the process of adding a new face to the list.
One such player who may be close to Camp Nou is Chelsea defender Marcos Alonso. The 31-year-old Spanish midfielder is entering the final year of his contract with the Blues and has decided to continue the summer, his heart set on moving to Barcelona.
Reports say the talks between the left-hander and the team have been ongoing for some time. And, now, Fabrizio Romano claims that Alonso will now agree to personal terms with Barcelona, which takes him another step closer to the transfer.
Barça needs to be strengthened at left-back, where Jordi Alba will have to carry the load for the entire 2021/22 season without some support in the area.
While several players are connected by transfer, the Blaugrana have been reduced to Alonso as their primary target and are now pressing forward with their efforts to incorporate the Chelsea ace.
According to Romano, talks between the left-back and Barcelona have been ongoing for a month now. He is also an Italian transfer expert and says Chelsea will allow the Spaniard to leave in the summer.
