FC Barcelona News: 17 May 2019; Rodri, Jasper Cillessen rumors intensify

Barcelona are reportedly one of several clubs willing to pay Rodri’s €70 million release clause. The midfielder is expected to leave Atletico Madrid this summer and Manchester City, Bayern Munich and now Barca are all believed to be interested.

Manchester United are reportedly interested in Barcelona goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen as David De Gea’s future at the club is in doubt. De Gea is in a contract stand-off with the Red Devils and could be sold with the club then considering using the funds to reinvest in the squad.

Former Dutch defender Jaap Stam thinks Matthijs de Ligt is a good fit for Barcelona.
