Fabrizio: “Clubs like Bayern and Arsenal, who are also pursuing Nico, now fully understand that his top choice is Barcelona. Still, they’re not backing down and will keep trying until the race is officially over. Nico’s focus, however, remains firmly on Barça.”
Fabrizio: “It’s now up to Barcelona. Nico has made it clear — he wants to join them and is open to making the move this summer. However, the transfer isn’t finalized yet, which is why Bayern continues to stay in touch. They’ve already had two meetings with his agents and plan to keep pushing in the coming days and weeks, as Nico remains a top target for them.”
Fabrizio: “Nico has a €58 million release clause, which must be paid in one lump sum. So, the question is whether Barça can afford to meet those terms. They also need to work out the details of salary, commissions, and overall financial structure of the deal — there’s a lot to sort out.”
