Andreas Christensen has agreed to extend his Barcelona stay on roughly half his previous wages, framing the decision as a bet on fit, trophies, and a fifth season under rising center-back pressure.
Barcelona have declined to exercise their buy option on Marcus Rashford, who still hopes to stay, while Manchester United are looking to secure a permanent sale this summer.
Barcelona have told Manchester United they are willing to pay £26 million to buy out Marcus Rashford, but with two conditions attached to the deal structure; INEOS have issued a response.
Spanish media report that Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick does not want to keep Marcus Rashford and is urging him to accept the Gunners' bid; the club did not trigger his €30m buyout clause, with squad space tightening after Anthony Gordon's arrival.
Barcelona and Newcastle have agreed the transfer fee and personal terms. Anthony Gordon will travel to Barcelona for his medical on Thursday, with an announcement expected this weekend.
Romano says Barcelona are pushing ahead on the Alvarez deal and the player clearly wants to join; Atletico's asking price could exceed Griezmann's former transfer fee.
Anthony Gordon is leaning toward joining Barcelona, with the Catalan club already in direct talks with Newcastle United, while Liverpool and Bayern Munich remain in the hunt.
