Only if Barça paid the buyout, not negotiating. That I doubt zubi would do. Maybe he tried and got a resounding "no" and that's why he moved to marquinhos.
Bilbao don't negotiate. They can't afford to let those Basque players leave.

Laporte would cost that, plus a substantial additional fee in taxes.
On the bright side, when the season begins, Bartra will be 3 months closer to being 27 years old than he is now.

Take with a pinch of salt of course.
Arda Turan meanwhile has again been linked with FC Barcelona although the Catalans have no need to bring in another creative player – unless Cesc Fàbregas moves on. Barça’s Director of Sport Andoni Zubizarreta has compiled a dossier on the Turkey international, including details on his lifestyle habits off the field of play.
Is MAtS going to be our only signing this summer? Then when we are hit with the transfer ban, mo more transfers in the next two summers?
Revival my arse.
Oh god.If we don't get benatia i don't know if I will still have the interest to follow barcelona or football.
A bit too early for that, the windows is not even open yet. And the ban is for 2 windows (january/june) not 2 summers.
