Tresoldi to Barcelona: longshot stalls after Brugge's reported refusal
The situation
There is no live negotiation to report here. Club Brugge's Nicolò Tresoldi has been linked with FC Barcelona since mid-October, but the most recent word on the matter is that Brugge have shut the door on any sale, with Barcelona's sporting director Deco said to be keen but rebuffed. No window is even open for La Liga clubs right now; the next chance Barcelona get to do business is January 2027, running from 1 January to 2 February. Tresoldi, 22, still has 30 months left on his Brugge contract at that point, with the deal running to 30 June 2029, so there is no contract leverage pulling him away either.
The reporting
The story traces back to Fichajes.net, whose report was relayed by Transfer News Central on 15 October, pointing to Barcelona tracking Tresoldi after a hat-trick against Inter Milan. Fichajes.net itself followed up on 28 October with the claim that Brugge have closed the door on the move. No trusted reporter has corroborated either the interest or the supposed rebuff, so this sits on thin sourcing throughout.
The outlook
Given all that, this move looks like a longshot. For it to happen, Barcelona would need to revive interest in January, agree a fee with a club that has reportedly already said no, and persuade a player with two and a half years left on his deal to leave. Arsenal, Atlético de Madrid, Chelsea, Manchester City, Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur, Leeds United, Manchester United and Everton have also been mentioned as admirers, which only dilutes any sense of exclusivity around Barcelona's pursuit.
What to watch
Watch for any softening in Brugge's stance once January opens, or a concrete offer from Barcelona or one of the chasing Premier League clubs.
Nicolò Tresoldi’s real transfer fees, for context, not a prediction.
