Barcelona 'will let EIGHT players leave to help free the funds to sign Mohamed Salah or Raphinha, plus Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen... and Cesar Azpilicueta is an option too'

Barcelona look set to eight players leave in order to reduce the wage bill and help sign either Mohamed Salah or Raphinha as well as Chelsea duo Andreas Christensen and Cesar Azpilicueta.

The Catalan giants have opened the door to the likes of Neto, Sergi Roberto, Clement Lenglet, Samuel Umtiti, Oscar Mingueza, Riqui Puig, Martin Braithwaite and Luuk de Jong to leave this summer, according to AS.

Barca are, however, trying to tie Roberto down to a new deal but talks have reached a standstill and the defender's future at the Nou Camp is uncertain.
