'RMC Sport': Barcelona-Nice agreement over Seri, to arrive on Friday

Talk of negotiations over Jean Michael Seri had gained strength in recent days and reports in France have assured that the two clubs have come to an agreement. According to 'RMC Sport', the midfielder should arrive in Barcelona on Friday at the latest.

Following complications in the Coutinho deal, Barcelona accelerated their contact with the Nice footballer and the signing looks set to be announced in the coming days.

Seri would arrive at the Camp Nou in a deal worth 40 million euros, signing for the next four seasons with the Catalan club.

After a fantastic season for Nice, in which Seri was a driving force behind his team's success, he joins many of his teammates in abandoning ship this summer in search of a new challenge.

Barcelona will sign a 26-year-old midfielder, who likes to burst forward and can strengthen Iniesta's position, one of Valverde's objectives in the transfer window.
