‘It's absurd money...I’d also like to have Mbappe!’ Koeman

Barcelona head coach Ronald Koeman has confessed he 'would like to have Mbappe too' when asked about his opinion on Real Madrid offering PSG €160 million for the striker, but the Dutchman has added that the figures were 'absurd'.

Hit hard by previous mismanagement and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, care in financial turmoil with debts reaching €1.4billion earlier this month.

Which resulted in the loss of talisman Lionel Messi and pay cuts for other stars.

Barcelona host Getafe Sunday at Camp Nou in the matchday three of La Liga. They started the Spanish league campaign with a 4-2 win over Real Sociedad, followed by a 1-1 draw at Athletic Bilbao.

The Catalans have been drawen in group E of the Champions League with Bayern Munich, Benfica and Dynamo Kyiv.
