Bayern Munich would reportedly be ready to sell midfielder Thiago Alcantara for €70 million (£61 million) amid speculation Barcelona want to bring him back to the club.
According to some sport pundits, the feeling Thiago could go back to the Camp Nou is “gaining more traction every day” and the German champions would be ready to sell for the right price, or for a deal that involves a player heading to the Allianz Arena.
“At the moment Bayern say they would consider €70 million, but they’re aware that this price is likely to put off most interested team, as such, Bayern are willing to lower that price if a footballer going the other way was included in the deal. That player would be Lucas Digne.”It’s suggested Digne would be an ideal signing for Munich as Juan Bernat, the current left-back back-up to David Alaba, is poised to move on this summer.
With Andres Iniesta leaving the club, Barcelona will look to strengthen the midfield positions. Thiago is said to be viewed as an ideal option in terms of his style of football and the personality he possesses.
While the Spain international has become a crucial player for Bayern down the years, the club are seeking to “remodel” their squad and are subsequently open to a potential sale.
