Ramon Planes has been chatting about his time with Barcelona and revealed how close the Catalans came to signing both Alexander Isak and Darwin Nunez.
Isak is currently hoping to seal a blockbuster move to Liverpool from Newcastle after impressing in the Premier League with the Magpies.
The Sweden international has been linked with Barca several times over recent years and Planes said a transfer very nearly happened.
“Then there have been players who have been able to come and it was not possible. I remember the case of Isak, a player that I particularly liked a lot,” he told Sport.
