Santos chief confirms agreement with Barcelona for Angelo & Kaiky

Santos president Andrés Rueda has confirmed that his club have an agreement with Barcelona for two of their young stars.

The Catalans have secured a preferential option to sign both Kaiky and Angelo in return for withdrawing a complaint to Fifa after Santos ignored a purchase option on Gabigol and sold him to Inter for €30m in 2013.

Rueda has offered a bit of insight into the whole saga in an interview with Diario Sport.

“Before, Barcelona had an option for Gabigol and now they have it for two players: Ángelo and Kaiky, who are two jewels that arouse great attraction throughout the market,” he said.
