According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Tudor Mendel is all set to join Barcelona after leaving Chelsea upon the expiry of his contract.
The 18-year-old wonderkid has been a sensational presence at the Blues’ youth side, but he left the club after his contract expired.
Mendel will join Barcelona after director Deco pounced on the opportunity to prise the 18-year-old away. The Catalans have proved successful in the pursuit, as Mendel will now sign a three-year deal and join Rafael Marquez’s youth side.
Romano tweeted: “Tudor Mendel left Chelsea as free agent few weeks ago after long negotiations… and he’s now joining Barcelona youth team. Interesting talent for Barça waiting to get the deal sealed.”
