Barcelona starlet’s move to PSG in ‘final stages’, negotiations regarding transfer fee ongoing | OneFootball

Barcelona’s young talent Dro Fernandez has been in the news in recent weeks for all the wrong reasons, and has understandably caused many of the figures in the club administration and management to feel disappointed.

After all, he has fought and pushed for a move away from the club despite being one of the prospects most highly rated by Hansi Flick, and news of his departure was quite unexpected in that sense.

With the player pushing for an exit, the club have not blocked the operation in any capacity and PSG have arrived on the scene as the best-placed team to sign him.

As relayed by Fabrizio Romano in a recent update, Dro’s move to PSG now is just a matter of time and is nearing the final stages close to completion. The verbal agreement between the French giants and the midfielder, in fact, is done.

Dro is clear that he wants to play and succeed at PSG as he sees better prospects and opportunities for regular minutes under Luis Enrique. His adamance, needless to say, is the driving force behind the operation.

PSG were initially expected to trigger the player’s €6 million release clause and sign him, but matters have now changed to ensure that Barcelona and the Parisiens maintain cordial relations.

Instead of triggering his release clause, PSG and Barcelona are closing in on an agreement for a fee slightly higher than his €6 million termination clause. After all, the player is worth far more than the meagre release clause on his contract.

With the deal reportedly in the closing stages now, one can expect the formalities to be completed in the coming days and for Dro to be presented as a PSG player for the second half of the season.

What will be interesting to see, needless to say, is whether he really sees any improvement in prominence at his new club.
