Deco has no intention of reopening the Bergvall file, with Barcelona considering that pursuit completely closed after moving on from the player some time ago.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/chelsea-fc-v-tottenham-sydney-super-cup-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Lucas Bergvall of Tottenham\" class=\"wp-image-208381\"  \/>Bergvall offered to Barcelona. (Photo by Brendon Thorne\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, the club\u2019s recruitment plans are focused on strengthening midfield with a very different profile.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their priority remains closing the signing of Manchester City ace Rodri, who is viewed as the ideal signing to elevate the quality and leadership of the midfield.<\/p>\n<p>The transfer that almost happened<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Barcelona came very close to signing Bergvall in 2024 while he was still at Djurgardens.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The proposed deal was <a href=\"https:\/\/barcauniversal.com\/barcelona-will-not-enter-bidding-war-with-tottenham-for-teenage-midfielder-after-offering-e7-million\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">worth around \u20ac7 million plus a further \u20ac3 million in add-ons<\/a>, and the midfielder even travelled to Barcelona to meet Deco and visit the club\u2019s training facilities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ultimately, however, Tottenham improved both their offer to the Swedish club and the player\u2019s personal terms.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/netherlands-v-sweden-group-f-fifa-world-cup-2026-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Lucas Bergvall #7 of Sweden\" class=\"wp-image-208380\"  \/>Bergvall was close to Barcelona in 2024. (Photo by Molly Darlington\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Barcelona refused to enter a bidding war, allowing Spurs to complete the signing instead. At the time, then-manager Xavi Hernandez summed up the situation by saying: <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOne club offered more and we felt we shouldn\u2019t go any higher. That\u2019s how the market works.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shortly after joining Tottenham, Bergvall admitted that choosing the Premier League over Barcelona had been one of the toughest decisions of his career. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey\u2019re two incredible clubs and the decision was very difficult. It was 50-50 for a long time, but I felt Tottenham was the right next step for me. It wasn\u2019t easy to say no to Bar\u00e7a,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Focus remains on Rodri<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, two years later, Bergvall\u2019s name has once again been linked with Barcelona. This time, however, the club\u2019s response has been immediate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Barcelona appreciate the approach, but have no intention of reopening a transfer they consider finished, with all of their efforts continuing to focus on completing a move for Rodri.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lucas Bergvall\u2019s name has resurfaced at FC Barcelona.
