Noussair Mazraoui has informed Barcelona that he wants to play at the Camp Nou next season, Gerard Romero reports from Sport. There is therefore a huge chance that the 24-year-old right-wing defender of Ajax will make a transfer-free transfer to Barça.
A delegation from Barcelona spoke with Mino Raiola in Turin on Monday, it was said Mundo Deportivo to report earlier. The agent was in Turin to attend the Golden Boy gala, but also spoke with Joan Laporta, Mateu Alemany and Jordi Cruijff in a ‘famous hotel’. In it, Raiola would also have talked about the future of Erling Braut Haaland and Paul Pogba outside of Mazraoui.
Mazraoui has had his interests represented by Raiola for several months. Last month he left Andy van der Meijde in the program With Andy in the car know that the negotiations are ‘in full swing’. “You’re not stupid either. The longer it takes, the harder it gets,” he added. Mazraoui said he is open to a transfer. “I also said that to Marc (Overmars, ed.). I am very honest about that.” Since then, Mazraoui has been associated with clubs such as Napoli, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Arsenal, Leeds United and Manchester City.
At a very young age, Mazraoui was included in the youth academy by Ajax. The fullback made his first-team debut in February 2018 and quickly made his way into the starting lineup after that. For example, Mazraoui was a regular face in the formation of Ajax that reached the semi-finals of the Champions League in the 2018/19 season. After struggling with injuries last season, Mazraoui is fully back on top form this year. The fullback has 4 goals and 3 assists after 21 games this season. In total, the counter is already at 123 duels (9 goals and 8 assists) in Amsterdam service.
