Barça-Tottenham agreement well advanced while waiting for Ilaix's OK
The clubs are finishing to seal the conditions of the transfer: 15 million that with variables would approach the '20 kilos'
Paratici, sports director of the Spurs, is in Barcelona to convince Ilaix, who has already practically done it with Leipzig
The FC Barcelona and Tottenham have faced the agreement for the transfer of Ilaix Moriba to the English team. The Spurs have offered a fixed 15 million that with the bonuses would approach the 20 'kilos' that the Catalan club wanted. Some variables that are just emerging between clubs. Now, it remains to be seen what decision the Barça squad makes, who had a very advanced agreement with Red Bull Leipzig although, as MD already said this Friday, he welcomes the British option.
Now it will be time to see how they convince the footballer from London and, especially, his environment. The ball, therefore, remains in the court of the 18-year-old midfielder, who is weighing all his options with his agents, even to study whether it is possible to reverse the agreement with the Bundesliga club . The financial claims of its agents can also be decisive because they threaten to hinder the operation with Tottenham , which is not willing to go crazy with the payment of commissions. Of course, the economic offer to the player is very good.
Paratici, in Barcelona to convince Ilaix
Ilaix Moriba , as MD learned, is attracted to Tottenham's proposal , as it is an important club in the Premier League, although this season he will play the Europa League.
Today Fabio Paratici has arrived in Barcelona , as reported by 'The Independent'. The Tottenham sports director wants to appear before the culé youth squad to convince him and take him to England.
It will not be easy. The agents and the player's environment continue to press for Ilaix Moriba to finish at Leipzig. The Germans will not reach the Spurs offer and Barça will not give in. If Ilaix prefers to play for the German team, it will be from 2022 and he will not play for the Blaugrana club for a season.
