Barcelona is reportedly attempting to negotiate a transfer fee of €10 million for homegrown talent Pedro ‘Dro’ Fernandez as he nears an exit to Paris Saint-Germain, despite a release clause of only €6 million.
Barcelona is currently working to finalize the departure of promising homegrown star Pedro ‘Dro’ Fernandez to Paris Saint-Germain, with the Catalan club aiming to secure a transfer fee significantly higher than the player’s €6 million release clause.
While the midfielder has reportedly made up his mind to join Luis Enrique’s project in France, SPORT reports that Barcelona is pushing for a figure closer to €10 million to help stabilize their ongoing financial priorities and ensure they do not lose a top prospect for a bargain price.
The internal tension surrounding the move was highlighted by the fact that Dro is currently training alone at the Ciutat Esportiva, a situation that only normalized after the team captains intervened to soften Hansi Flick’s initial stance to bar him from the facilities entirely.
Despite the player’s isolation from the main squad, sources close to the negotiations indicate a “clear intention from both clubs to reach an agreement,” though the final structure of the deal remains under discussion as Barcelona seeks to maximize the economic return on what they consider a missed opportunity for the club’s long-term sporting plans.
