Barcelona are reportedly ready to pounce for Matthijs de Ligt as it is claimed Ajax are ‘upset’ with Juventus over their conduct.

De Ligt has long agreed personal terms with Juve, but Ajax have yet to receive a satisfactory offer from Juve.

Now, Sport believes the Bianconeri are ‘worried’ that Barca could make a last-ditch attempt to sign the 19-year-old.

Barcelona are reportedly ready to pounce for Matthijs de Ligt as it is claimed Ajax are ‘upset’ with Juventus over their conduct.

De Ligt has long agreed personal terms with Juve, but Ajax have yet to receive a satisfactory offer from Juve.

Now, Sport believes the Bianconeri are ‘worried’ that Barca could make a last-ditch attempt to sign the 19-year-old.

The newspaper suggests the Dutch champions are playing hardball with the Old Lady as they negotiated with agent Mino Raiola first.

Furthermore, Ajax would already have two better bids on the table from Paris Saint-Germain and the Catalans, the latter of whom offered €70m a few weeks ago.

Contrary to what Tuttosport reported on Thursday, however, Sport writes the stopper has an asking price of €75m.

It now remains to be seen how much longer Juve get to negotiate a transfer fee for De Ligt before his club reopen talks with Barca and PSG.
