Agent: Insigne NOT turned down by Barcelona
The Catalan paper claimed that Insigne's agents have repeatedly emphasized that the Napoli playmaker wants to join Barcelona, and even sit on the bench, but that the Cules have opted for someone else.
“This news has left me perplexed,” Fabio Andreotti told Radio Marte, “there was contact with Barcelona, but we spoke to other important clubs too”.
“I was the one who called Barca. Robert Fernandez told me that he could be a transfer target for the Blaugrana, but we never met with them because the Catalans decided to focus on other players. The situation didn't develop.
“Just because a player's agency sends feelers doesn't mean that there was ever any negotiation”.
