Juve-Barcelona, Bernardeschi-Rakitic on stand-by: negotiating for Rodrigo

Contacts are still ongoing between Juventus and Barcelona for the swap between Bernardeschi and Rakitic. It slowed down in the last few hours, as the two clubs find themselves in stand-by because they are having trouble in reaching an agreement for a cash supplement to be included in the deal. Barcelona do not want to go over 10 million euros that they offered. Meanwhile, Barcelona are negotiating for Valencia's Rodrigo, who is represented by agent Jorge Mendes. The agent arrived in Barcelona to conduct the negotiations. The solution to find an agreement could be a swap deal and the two clubs are trying to find the rights players to include in the deal.
