Confirmed, Al-Khelaïfi Wants to Take Barça's Worst to PSG: Flick Can't Stand Him

Paris Saint-Germain surprises and shows interest in a Barça player

In FC Barcelona's Locker Room, There Is a Player Who Has Gone from Being a Starter to Being Completely Sidelined. His relationship with Hansi Flick has deteriorated to the point where the German coach has completely stopped counting on him. Although his performance had been more than notable in various phases of the season, an internal conflict has ultimately condemned him.

This Footballer, Who Was Once Key to the Team, Has Been Left in a Critical Situation. His future at Barça is nonexistent, and he has already decided to leave in the summer.

The management, aware of the tension with Flick, is looking for a solution for his departure.  What No One Expected Is That Paris Saint-Germain Would Enter the Scene Showing Interest in Signing Him.

From Undisputed Starter to Condemned

Just a Few Months Ago, This Player Was a Fundamental Piece in Flick's Plans.  Faced with an unexpected situation within the team, he knew how to respond with guarantees, earning the trust of the fans and much of the locker room.

However, everything changed in a key match of the season. A disciplinary issue ended up blowing up his relationship with Flick, who decided to leave him on the bench and bet on another teammate in his place. Since Then, He Hasn't Had Any Significant Playing Time, and His Future at the Club Is Condemned.

Despite the situation, the player still has a great reputation in Europe. His profile has caught the attention of several teams looking to strengthen their squad. Although there are interested parties in LaLiga, the team that has taken the lead is PSG.

Luis Enrique Wants to Sign Him for PSG

Luis Enrique Has Been One of the Major Drivers of This Operation. The Spanish coach is not entirely convinced with his current squad and has identified this footballer's position as one of the priorities to strengthen in the next market.

In fact, PSG has been looking for solutions in that position for some time. Neither Gianluigi Donnarumma nor Arnau Tenas Have Fully Convinced. The Parisian Club Wants to Add a New Name to Create Competition and Stability in the Team.

After Weeks of Speculation, the Footballer in Question Is None Other Than Iñaki Peña.

Barça's Goalkeeper Has Gone from Being a Starter to Being Relegated to Ostracism After a Conflict with Flick.  His benching began after a delay in a meeting before a key match, which led the coach to bet on Wojciech Szczęsny. Since then, Peña hasn't had any opportunities and has decided to leave the club.

PSG considers that Peña could be a great option to strengthen their goalkeeping. Given his situation at Barça, they see a market opportunity to sign him at an affordable price.
