While FC Barcelona would have a major advantage in the De Ligt case thanks to Mino Raiola, the emoluments of the Dutch defender could seal the plans of the club culé , and arrange the PSG in reverse.
Arrived at Juventus in 2019, Matthijs de Ligt could soon take off. According to his agent Mino Raiola , the Dutch defender would indeed consider packing his bags, and several destinations are likely to interest him for his future. “I think we all know which clubs to name for Matthijs de Ligt as the next step. We will see this summer. The Premier League? It could be Barcelona too, or Real Madrid or Paris Saint-Germain ”, recently confided Mino Raiola. According to Sport, the famous agent would have reached an agreement with Juventus to facilitate a future transfer to FC Barcelona . Thus, Joan Laporta would not have to pay the 140M € of the release clause of the Dutchman, but 75M €, the price paid by the Juventus for his transfer. What to give a size advantage to Barça , but that does not mean that the chances of PSG are reduced to zero in this case.
De Ligt's salary poses a problem for Barça
According to Sport information, FC Barcelona are still far from having completed the De Ligt file. While the club could match the € 75m needed for the player's transfer, the situation is different when it comes to his emoluments. Matthijs de Ligt receives an annual net salary of € 8M, not counting the various bonuses which would amount to € 4M. While Barça is trying to reduce its payroll, Joan Laporta would simply be unable to align with these figures, a boon for PSG and the other contenders.
