According to the leaks, Barcelona wants to get rid of him, but he has no intention of leaving at all. I wonder if they will put as much pressure on him as they tried to put on De Jong, he has a contract until 2028, it's quite a long wait (and pay wages 
).
Barcelona needs to get rid him of the club in order to free space a spot for their new player. Getting rid him is one best solution available. I don't think his wage is the problem. It's because his wages is pretty small, which is only €121,154 weekly. His wages is not burdening the club, but has to follow 1:1 La Liga rules. So getting rid him of the club is best decision to take. ).However, i still expect Barcelona to treat him badly like they did to the De Jong to pressure him in leaving from the club.
