Monday's Barcelona transfer talk news roundup: Lautaro Martinez, N'Golo Kante, Hakim Ziyech

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Barcelona on Monday, July 20.

The buildup to the summer transfer window has now begun, with rumours and speculation continuing to swirl as Barcelona eye possible reinforcements.

The Spanish champions spent big on Antoine Griezmann during the summer but missed out on a big-name striker in January, leading to speculation that they could splash the cash again when the window reopens.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer news from the Camp Nou.

Monday morning's Barcelona transfer talk news roundup:


Jadon Sancho 'will have to push for Manchester United move'

Jadon Sancho will reportedly have to make it clear to Borussia Dortmund that he wants to join Manchester United this summer in order to secure a move to Old Trafford.

The 20-year-old enjoyed an excellent 2019-20 campaign for BVB, scoring 20 times and providing 20 assists in 44 appearances, including 17 goals and 17 assists in the Bundesliga.

United continue to be strongly linked with the England international, although the Red Devils are allegedly struggling to come an agreement over a transfer fee.

According to The Mirror, Dortmund are not prepared to accept less than £100m for the former Manchester City youngster, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are reluctant to meet that figure due to the financial impact of the coronavirus outbreak.

As a result, the report claims that Sancho will have to "push" for a move to Old Trafford by making it clear to his German club that he wants to leave ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

Chelsea, Liverpool, Real Madrid and Barcelona have all previously been credited with an interest, but United are believed to be in pole position to sign the attacker.



Chelsea 'prepared to sell N'Golo Kante this summer'

Chelsea would reportedly be prepared to sell French midfielder N'Golo Kante this summer, providing that they receive an offer in the region of €60m (£54.5m).

The 29-year-old has struggled with injuries this season and has not featured in his team's last three Premier League matches, while a hamstring issue also saw him miss out against Manchester United in the semi-finals of the FA Cup on Sunday night.

Kante still has three years left to run on his contract with the Blues but various reports have suggested that the 2018 World Cup winner could be set for a move away from the club.

According to reports in Spain, Chelsea's summer business, which has already seen them sign Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner, means that they are open to the midfielder leaving ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

The Blues allegedly value the France international in the region of €60m (£54.5m), and Real Madrid are said to be keeping a close eye on developments as they weigh up a move.

Barcelona and Inter Milan have also been credited with an interest in the two-time Premier League title winner.
