That works out as £4.2m per season - or £80,000 per week.

However, the reports adds his imminent arrival has caused division within the Barca board, with some feeling he is not good enough - especially after recent blunders for Chelsea and Barca's high line.

The Catalan giants are set to let go of Clement Lenglet, Samuel Umtiti and Oscar Mingueza this summer.
