Barcelona try to move Neto to Arsenal

Barcelona's squad could suffer a number of losses in the upcoming season. Several players will not be in Xavi's plans and the board will try to look to sell them this transfer window.

One of those who could leave is keeper Neto Murara, who does not start due to Marc-Andre ter Stegen's presence. Neto would be willing to go out on loan to another club so that he can play regular football in this stage of his career.

'Sport' report that the Brazilian keeper will have many opportunities to finalise his departure to Arsenal in the next few weeks. The English club are close to selling Bernd Leno and will try to replace him by signing Neto.

Barcelona will allow him to leave on the condition that the loan deal has an option to buy so that The Gunners will have to buy the player in the future, provided that he plays well and impresses the board.

Neto is the first player in a long list of players who could leave the Catalan club this summer. There will be developments in the weeks to come, but what is certain is that Mateu Alemany has already started to work on trying to reduce the club's wage bill by offloading players.
