Barcelona will use tomorrow’s La Liga game against Valencia to look at Pepelu, a player they want to sign.
It is said that Xavi Hernandez is looking at his choices for next season now that he has confirmed that he will stay in charge at Barcelona.
A key area where Xavi wants to make changes is the midfield. Pepelu is one choice after a good first season at Los Che.
Valencia bought the 25-year-old from Levante, a rival team in the area, and his work to get used to playing in the top league has caught the eye.
He has a deal at the Estadio Mestalla until 2028, and Valencia thinks he’s worth about €30 million if they want to sell him.
The most recent news from Diario Sport says that Xavi is considering him to add to his middle. He has scored six goals and set up eight others in league play.
Pepelu could still make a late push to be called up to Spain’s Euro 2024 team. He has played for La Roja at five different levels of youth.
