Barcelona allegedly remain confident that they will be able to secure deals for Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez and Juventus midfielder Miralem Pjanic.


Given the financial implications of the coronavirus pandemic, transfer fees will not reach the levels of past transfer windows, leaving clubs to potentially negotiate part-exchange or straight-swap deals.

The circumstances may lead to some teams preferring to stick with their current options, especially in the case of Inter with Martinez known to have a big release clause.

However, Marca claims that Barcelona have few concerns over eventually getting deals for the Argentine and Pjanic over the line.

The report suggests that both players are prioritising a move to Camp Nou, rather than being willing to entertain a move to another high-profile team in Europe.

Much is likely to depend on whether Inter and Juventus are willing to accept a player as part of any deal.
