A senior source connected to Barcelona said the club has no intention of letting 23-year-old midfielder Fermín López leave, describing him as untouchable. The source added that nobody had contacted Barcelona about him and that he is an important part of Hansi Flick’s plans, noting that his new contract, signed earlier this year, reflects his standing in the team.
This followed reports linking López with Manchester United, though sources close to the English club also played down the likelihood of a move for him. The report said intermediaries had sought to gauge the interest of clubs including Chelsea, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, but those clubs showed no desire to pursue the matter. Barcelona and the player were not involved in those discussions, and no official offer was made to the Catalan club.
