Furthermore, sporting director Igli Tare would look to sign the Portuguese for a ‘good price’, given he has struggled for game time at Camp Nou and earns a ‘high salary’, while Barca need to raise funds for Antoine Griezmann.

Gomes, who had previously been linked with Juventus, was left out of his country’s World Cup squad.
