It is believed the Blaugranas are looking to sign the full-back as they see him as a perfect replacement for Junior Firpo, who has found it hard to fit in at the Nou Camp. “Ajax is a great club, but the Eredivisie is not a great competition. You must always have dreams. The preparations will start in August for around two months. But whether or not I'll leave... it's all uncertain,” Tagliafico told radio station Continental. “I'm trying to think about my condition, to stay fit as possible in case I go to another club. I'm standing on the sidelines. Maybe I'm on [Barcelona’s] list, but there is nothing concrete."
