Borussia Dortmund contact Barcelona over transfer deal | OneFootball

German heavyweights Borussia Dortmund have made contact with their counterparts at Barcelona, over a potential deal for an up-and-coming member of the latter’s midfield ranks.

That’s according to market insider Gianluigi Longari, who points towards Guille Fernández as the player in question.

Guille’s name will likely be a familiar one to close followers of Spanish champions Barcelona.

This comes with the 17-year-old having long been making a name for himself as a potential star in the making in Catalunya’s capital.

Guille was called up for pre-season training by Hansi Flick upon his arrival at Barca last summer, with the same privilege having been afforded to the starlet this time round, too.

And yet, with so many high-profile stars blocking the path to first-team minutes in the Blaugrana’s midfield at present, murmurs have long been in circulation that Guille could be tempted by an offer of immediate senior football elsewhere.

The Barcelona faithful, in turn, will likely be concerned by word stemming from the media on Sunday.

This comes amid confirmation on the part of transfer journalist Gianluigi Longari that:

‘Borussia Dortmund have asked for information from Barcelona about the signing of Guille Fernández.’
