Barcelona believe they have done enough to clinch the signature of Liverpool and Wolves linked defender Jean-Clair Todibo in the summer.
The 19-year-old centre-back cemented his place in the Toulouse starting eleven after only making his debut at the start of the season, but the French club are set to lose him next summer.
The Frenchman’s contract expires at the end of the season and he has attracted interest from several clubs, with Juventus and Napoli reportedly tabling offers with the defender’s representatives.
Liverpool and Wolves have also been keeping tabs on the young defender, but it seems Todibo has made the decision to move to Spain next summer.
And according to Catalan daily Sport, Barcelona believe that they have done all the work necessary to make sure the youngster moves to the Catalan giants at the end of the season.
Barcelona technical director Eric Abidal conducted the negotiations with the defender’s representatives and Todibo has agreed to join the club at the end of the season.
The youngster is yet to sign any official papers, but Barcelona believe they have the signing in place for next summer.
It remains to be seen if other clubs will still make attempts to hijack the deal before he puts pen to paper.
