Barça already knows David's financial demands. The operation for the striker would reach 80 million euros despite not having to pay a transfer fee
Jonathan David will be one of the great opportunities of the next transfer market. The Canadian is out of contract with Lille and will not renew, so he has become one of the most attractive pieces of the summer. FC Barcelona is one of the most interested in acquiring his services, and the player himself recognized his desire to wear the Blaugrana shirt, but there have not yet been any concrete movements to incorporate him into Hansi Flick's squad.
And the fact is that at Can Barça there is no consensus on his arrival and his high economic demands complicate his signing even more. Although the footballer would land in Barcelona as a free agent, this does not mean that he will arrive for free. According to 'SPORT', the Catalans are informed of the amount that the operation would amount to, which would be around 80 million euros.
This figure would be divided between the player's salary for 4 years, the signing bonus and the commission derived from the signing. Although it is not far-fetched, it continues to exceed the room for manoeuvre that the Blaugrana have at the moment, where they are also considering the fact of paying this price for a player who would not be an undisputed starter.
Barça still not making any move for David
For now, the Blaugranas are still not making any move for Jonathan David, since despite being clear that he is a striker with a lot of goals, they have doubts about his performance at Barça. However, from the offices of the Spotify Camp Nou, his declaration of love for Barça is highly valued and they believe that if they decide to go for his signing, the player would be willing to make a financial effort.
Due to his age and conditions, his profile could fit into the planning for next season, but today, the priority of the sports management would be the arrival of a left winger. Meanwhile, the Premier League is on the lookout for the Canadian and could seriously jeopardize his arrival in Barcelona, although, for the moment, all options remain on the table for the player.
