Barcelona Captain, Andres Iniesta is a step closer to leaving Camp Nou on a free transfer after he rejected claims he is close to extending his contract with the Catalans.
Iniesta has rejected claims from President Josep Maria Bartomeu that a deal is close, insisting: “It’s not true that we’re close to an agreement on a renewal.”
The Italian giants, Juventus “plans” to bring in the Barca great to Turin on a free transfer in 2018 when his contract expires.
Recall that Barcelona’s vice-president, Jordi Mestre, insisted Brazil international Neymar will not leave the Spanish giants any time soon but he did.
The Bianconeri are still keen to add to their squad the World Cup winner, who will be 34 years old next summer.
