While Barcelona did eventually manage to beat Real Valladolid, the La Liga giants produced a lacklustre performance that boss Quique Setien has put down to fatigue. The Catalan giants have not been consistent since the restart which has allowed Real Madrid to surge ahead in the title race.

Barcelona presidential candidate Victor Font has asserted that while the club support Quique Setien because he is the club’s current coach, Setien isn’t the man they back for the future. The 62-year-old replaced Ernesto Valverde mid-way through the season but results haven’t gone their way.

Inter Milan CEO Giuseppe Marotta admitted that Lautaro Martinez needs to find a ‘peace of mind’ to give his best for the club with him being heavily linked with a move away. The official clearly stated that the club are not inclined at all to part ways with the 23-year old forward right now.

Former Real Madrid star Rafael van der Vaart has admitted that it would be very tough for Donny van de Beek to turn down Real Madrid if they do make a move. The Ajax star is one of the few players left from the club’s sensational Champions League run last season but has been linked with a move away.
