Barcelona : Sergino Dest is very close to be a FC Barcelona player, according to reports. The American right back who had interests even from FC Bayern Munich, chose Camp Nou to be his next destination.

The player can be announced anytime this week by FC Barcelona, as Barcelona have agreed personal terms with Dest  and are going to complete the deal with Ajax for €22/23m + add on. According to reports he flew to Spain on Sunday (September 27).

Dest bid his team mates goodbye, after his team won 2-1 win over Vitesse. Though he did not play the entire game and was brought in as an late substitution, which might very well has been his last appearance for Ajax.

“There are many stories around Dest, just like with Onana and Tagliafico. Whether I have news? No, I have no news. I know that Bayern and Barcelona are both interested in taking over Sergiño. But that is still not the case so far. So he is still in the selection and is available,” Eric ten Hag said before the match started.

Barcelona, sold Nelson Semedo to Wolves and would want Dest to occupy the position vacated by him. The 19 year old was also much more tempted by the Catalan side’s offer. FC Bayern Munich might target Max Aarons instead as the Dest deal failed to go through.
