Barcelona have reached an agreement with Watford for Rey Manaj according to Mundo Deportivo. The clubs will make the news official in the coming hours. The Albanian striker is ready to move to England and is waiting for the go-ahead on his medical.

Watford won’t pay a fee for his services. Manaj’s contract with Barcelona ends in the summer of 2023 and so instead of charging a fee the Catalan club have instead taken a percentage of a future sale should Manaj depart Watford in the near future. Manaj, 25 years of age, spent last season on loan at Italian side Spezia.
