Mikayil Faye would be one step away from being the next closed front in the offices of FC Barcelona in the dizzying 'exit operation'. The culés are rushing to discard him and the centre-back, absent from training last Friday at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper prior to the league debut against Valencia after suffering a virus that prevented him from exercising with his teammates, would be the next 'sacrifice' . The negotiations would be advanced and his departure to Ligue 1 would be imminent.

The defender would have opted for the offer from Rennes, the team that has pushed hardest to obtain the incorporation of the Senegalese. The French team already tried to sign him last January, but the player stayed in the reserve team since Can Barça were not willing to let him leave. However, his 'non-transferable' status changed this summer and everything indicates that Roazhon Park will be the player's next destination.

According to 'Mundo Deportivo', in the offices of the Spotify Camp Nou they are preparing to receive a minimum figure of 10 million euros plus variables for his signing, which could rise up to 5 'kilos'. This money would help complete the registrations of some members of the Blaugrana squad who have not been able to be registered in LaLiga for the debut of Hansi Flick's team at Mestalla.

In this way, Faye is expected to leave a good 'slice' in the Catalan coffers after having landed last summer in exchange for 2.2 million euros. The defender had the intention of earning a place in the German coach's plans, but given the little prominence given by the coach during the tour of the United States, the defender asked the club to leave him in the current transfer market.

Barça saves a clause

At 20 years old, Mika is one of the defenders with the greatest projection today and Barça is aware of this, which is why they are negotiating with Rennes the inclusion of a buyback clause in case the central defender ends up 'exploding' under the orders of Julien Stéphan. However, if this option is obtained, the footballer could refuse, since, as of today, he does not contemplate wearing the Blaugrana shirt again.
