'Barca have Balde': Fabrizio Romano pours cold water on Alphonso Davies links to Barcelona

Alejandro Balde might be injured right now but he won't be forever. According to the trustworthy Fabrizio Romano, Balde is one reason why Barcelona will not go crazy over Bayern's Alphonso Davies.

"The agent of the Davies was in Barcelona but at the moment, I’m not aware of concrete negotiations with Barca," Romano shares his update on CaughtOffside.

"Barca have Balde in that position and Alphonso wants an important salary, either from Bayern with a new deal or Real Madrid or any other club.

"So, for Barca, it’s really complicated to offer that," Romano concludes.

Besides Balde, it's difficult to see Barca spending €50m+ to sign Davies and placing him on a €12m yearly salary when they're still struggling to lower their wage bill and meet FFP demands.

It all makes their interest in the Canadian left-back seem like a wild goose chase.

What's more, Real Madrid have been keen on Davies long before Barca entered the conversation. And well all know they have the money to pay.
