Barcelona in ‘advanced talks’ to sign LAFC defender Mamadou Fall

Barcelona are reportedly in talks to sign LAFC center-back Mamadou Fall on a season-long loan with a purchase option.

The Athletic report that Catalans are in “advanced talks” about a transfer, although La Liga rivals Villarreal are also thought to be in the mix for his signature.

Fall spent some of last season with Villarreal B and it seems the Yellow Submarine are keen for him to continue at the club for at least another year.

If Fall does move to the Camp Nou then he would link up with Rafa Marquez’s Barcelona Atletic in the first instance.
