Nice closing in on Wagué

Wagué left KAS Eupen when he was 19 to land in Barcelona, where he made his first-team debut last season with Ernesto Valverde.

The defender still has no minutes due to the competition in the first team, even though injuries like Umtiti's could have been his chance to shine. 

Even so, Wagué has plenty of options to find another way out of Barcelona and there are clubs like Leicester and Torino who have shown their interest. 

According to 'Mundo Deportivo', Barcelona is already negotiating with Nice to reach an agreement with the French club before the end of the transfer market.

However, there are no details yet as to whether he would be leaving on loan with a buyout option, or more permanently as a  signing.
