Barcelona want Juan Cuadrado to force Fiorentina into sanctioning his sale in the current transfer window.
The Colombian winger has been one of the primary targets of the Catalan giants and the club have been trying to work out a deal for him throughout the summer.
Cuadrado is believed to be keen on moving to the Nou Camp, but Fiorentina’s financial demands are turning out to be a hindrance.
La Viola secured the winger on a permanent deal from Udinese last month and are not willing to sanction his sale for anything less than €40m.
The Blaugrana are believed to be unwilling to meet those financial demands and want Cuadrado to force the issue with the Italian club, according to Marca.
