Barca agree swap deal for Neves

After wining La Liga, the FC Barcelona board have started to work on compiling their squad for next season. They're obliged to replace Sergio Busquets, as one of the club legends will be leaving the club at the end of the season.

With this in mind, the Catalan side have already gone in search of the ideal replacement. According to 'A Bola', the Barca squad have come to an agreement with Wolverhampton Wanderers to get Ruben Neves.

Julen Lopetgeui's side would be willing to let one of their main men go, on the condition that they get Ansu Fati in for next season.

The man bringing it all together was agent Jorge Mendes, who is thought to have convinced Wolves of paying €30 million as well as Ruben Neves to get the Barca number 10.

The 26year olf Portuguese midfielder rejected a new contract with the Premier League side as he wanted a change of scene in the summer, meaning a departure is basically guaranteed for him.

In Portugal, it's being reported that there is a concrete deal for next season, although it will all depend on the discussion between Xavi and Ansu Fati, who will discuss the youngster's future.

If nothing goes awry, everything seems to indicate that Neves will be Busquet's replacement for next year while the forward, if he is not opposed to the deal, would leave the number 10 shirt vacant.
