This summer, his name came back insistently on the side of FC Barcelona. Perceived as the promising right-back who fit perfectly with the culé project, Ivan Fresneda waited for a sign from the Catalan club for several weeks. However, while the Barcelona leaders finally seem to have set their sights on Joao Cancelo. After the departure of Dest to PSV, the Portuguese should indeed join Barça in the form of a loan with an option to buy according to Mundo Deportivo.

After this blow, Fresneda could finally stay in the second division with the Pucelanos of Real Valladolid. However, a hope remains and is called Chelsea. Indeed, according to the Catalan media, the Blues would have looked into the case of the 19-year-old player. The London club would even have a plan in mind if they were to recruit him: to lend him so that he would harden up even more. While he has a release clause estimated at 20 million, he could leave against 15 million euros and 5 more which would act as a bonus.
