Barcelona's Rodrigo move off as attention turns towards Betis' Loren

Barcelona's move for Valencia striker Rodrigo Moreno is off and they are now targeting Real Betis forward Loren Moron, Goal can confirm.

The deal for Rodrigo has been called off for financial reasons, with the Blaugrana and Valencia unable to come to terms on a potential agreement.

To stay in line with the club's 2019-20 budget plans, Barcelona need to raise €128 million (£108m/$141m) by the end of the summer and, although the club have sold players and loaned out several others, they need to offload more to balance the books.
