So that they can get central midfielder Amadou Onana for less money, Barcelona is said to be willing to offer players to Everton.

Since coming to Everton from Lille in the summer of 2022, Onana has been a bright spot on a team that has been having a tough time. The 22-year-old Senegal international has been linked to several teams besides Barcelona, such as Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United.

SPORT says that the Catalans are having trouble with an asking price of £51.5 million. Even if Everton were to be kicked out of the Premier League, £34 million would still be too much to pay.

For Everton, money is the most important thing after being docked points by the Premier League and fined a second time for breaking financial rules. But Barcelona is likely to offer players in return.

But it won’t be big names or players thought to be important to the project at Camp Nou. Instead, it will be players like Clement Lenglet, Sergino Dest, Ansu Fati, and Fermin Lopez who are no longer playing for Barcelona but are still valuable.

This season, Lenglet is on loan to Aston Villa, Dest is on loan to PSV Eindhoven, and Fati is on loan to Brighton. Lopez, on the other hand, is said to have no plans to leave Barcelona.

A report from Spain earlier this week said that Onana is one of four names on Barcelona’s shortlist to improve their middle. Joshua Kimmich, a star player for Bayern Munich who is linked with a move away from the Allianz Arena, Aleix Garcia of Girona, and Mats Wieffer of Feyenoord are also said to be on the mind of Deco and Barcelona’s sports department.
