Oriol Romeu is approaching FC Barcelona with great strides! Since the departure of Sergio Busquets for the United States, Barça have set their sights on the Spanish midfielder to succeed him. If at the beginning of the week, we mentioned that the Catalan club and the 31-year-old player had come to an agreement, Sport reveals this Wednesday that the negotiations have reached a new milestone.

Indeed, the Spanish media informs that the two rival clubs have reached an agreement for the signing of the native of Ulldecona. His arrival should be effective in the next few hours. However, the ex-Stuttgart player’s transfer price and contract length have not been revealed. Trained with the Blaugranas, Oriol Romeu had a sluggish start to his career, marked by failed episodes at Valencia and then at Chelsea. Revealed in the colors of Southampton, the Spanish international made the choice to return to the fold last summer and then had an accomplished season with the Blanquivermells, evidenced by his 33 appearances for 2 goals scored. At 31, he is about to give a new impetus to his career.
