Barça announced last night an agreement in principle to transfer defender Òscar Mingueza to Celta. He is one of the soccer players discarded by Xavi Hernández who did not travel to the United States. Before the Catalan, Lenglet (Tottenham) and Trincão (Sporting de Portugal) left the club. In addition, Luuk de Jong, Dani Alves and Adama ended their relationship with the club.
Mingueza (23 years old) will reinforce a Celta in need of troops within a controversial summer in Vigo.
In Barcelona, Martin Braithwaite, Riqui Puig, Neto and Umtiti continue to await their destiny. Xavi doesn't have any of them. The Dane would be negotiating the termination of his contract, the Catalan midfielder is aiming more abroad, the goalkeeper had received interest from Napoli and the defender would be waiting for a visit from emissaries from Olympiacos.
The defender from Santa Perpètua de la Mogoda will sign a four-year contract with the team from Vigo after wearing the Barça first-team shirt 66 times in the last two seasons. A youth squad since 2007, it was Ronald Koeman who made him debut, in November 2020.
