Today’s rumors start with news that Barca have a Plan B just in case they miss out on signing Plan A which is Juventus striker Alvaro Morata.
Diario AS reckon that Arsenal outcast Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is Xavi’s second choice and could join Barcelona on loan for the rest of the season if Morata isn’t signed.
The Gabon international seems destined to leave Arsenal after falling out with Mikel Arteta but Barca must resole the Dembele situation before signing Morata or Aubameyang.
Balde doesn’t want to join Ajax
Over at Marca the word is that Barca still want Nicolas Tagliafico from Ajax but Alejandro Balde isn’t interested in being used in the deal.
