After the formalization of the signing of Frank Kessié on Monday, Barça’s summer transfer window is still far from complete. While Andreas Christensen is due to sign up for free in the coming days, the Robert Lewandowski, Bernardo Silva and Jules Koundé files are likely to drag on for several weeks with the high transfer compensation announced.
Regarding the French defender of Sevilla FC, Monchi has also cast a chill on the negotiations with the Blaugranas.
“There is no contact with Barcelona for Jules Koundé. No discussions in progress” declared the Sevillian sporting director, according to comments relayed by Fabrizio Romano.
“I understand Xavi as Araújo and Koundé together would be great but there is nothing” he then conceded, before adding that Galatasaray defender Marcao was “one of the many options” of his list to replace Jules Koundé.
To let the former Bordeaux slip away two years from the end of his contract, Sevilla FC will wait for an offer of at least 50 million euros.
No discussion between Sevilla and Barça for Koundé
