Barcelona will reportedly demand €35-40 million to part ways with 21-year-old Moroccan winger Ez Abde this summer.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Barcelona will not let Ez Abde leave on the cheap. The Catalan giants want €35-40 million to part ways with the 21-year-old winger in the summer transfer window. And the youngster is a target for several Premier League clubs.
Abde Ezzalzouli, better known as Ez Abde, has been with Barcelona for nearly two years. A former talismanic figure for Hercules CF, the Moroccan international has had to bide his time at Camp Nou. And after making a few appearances in the 2021/22 season, he is yet to make his mark for Barcelona.
But the 21-year-old has enjoyed a solid 2022/23 season on loan at Osasuna, with his performance levels improving with every passing week. And Abde has a decent tally of five goals and two assists in 26 appearances. The player’s progress has not gone unnoticed either, with several Premier League clubs interested in the Barcelona winger.
The latest reports have linked Ez Abde with Wolverhampton Wanderers. And the Black Country outfit will launch the offensive for the Barcelona winger if they avoid relegation. In addition, the youngster is a target for Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur. And the Premier League clubs now know how much they will need to pay to sign him.
Barcelona will demand around €35-40 million to part ways with the 21-year-old winger. That seems like a significant sum for a player yet to show a prolific side to his game. But Abde’s contract with Barcelona will expire in June 2026. So with three years remaining on his deal, the price tag is not surprising.
It is unclear if Chelsea, Tottenham, and others will be open to shelling out €35-40 million to sign the youngster. Meanwhile, the latest update contradicts recent reports, which claimed that Barcelona will not look to sell Abde.
But it will be interesting to see if any suitor will be open to coughing up €35-40 million to sign the 21-year-old winger. Whether Barcelona will think against selling Abde will also be an intriguing eventuality to witness.
