A member of the midfield ranks at La Liga giants Barcelona is attracting serious transfer interest by way of the Premier League. This comes amid the understanding that Fermín López is a man in-demand at present.
Spanish international Fermín is for his part fresh off another stellar opening to the new campaign in Catalunya’s capital.
Having beaten out the competition of Dani Olmo to secure first-choice status as the attacking spearhead in Hansi Flick’s engine room, the 23-year-old has responded with a string of spectacular performances.
All told, Fermín has racked up 15 appearances between La Liga and the Champions League. And along the way, the midfielder has directly contributed to 15 goals. This includes a match-winning brace in a crucial victory over Atlético Madrid last time out.
With such ongoing excellence, though, comes inevitable outside interest. And according to Diario Sport, precisely as much is currently stemming in force from the Premier League:
‘Chelsea and Manchester United have shown the most interest, but two other clubs have also shown their intention to take Fermín to the English league.’
It is also noted, however, that Fermín, for his part, has no intention of bringing a close to his Barcelona stint any time soon.
