Dutch newspaper "der Telegraf" confirms that FCB officials were in Amsterdam yesterday and that a specific offer, much more in line with the Dutch club's original asking price, was communicated today.
Spanish club FC Barcelona have reportedly also stepped up their efforts. According to Spanish sporting newspaper "Mundo Deportivo", the Azulgrana continue to attempt to work out a loan-arrangement with the Erdevisie's top club. The latest offer reportedly included an obligatory €20-25 million purchase option triggered after one-year. Barça clearly bets that they will have more capital available after the next season.
