Five months ago the dialogue with Barcelona stopped because the full-back of Dominican origin preferred to stay with the Blaugrana.
However, the confirmation that Ronald Koeman will be staying on as the head coach pushes him towards Italy, where he would be tasked with being the new deputy to Theo Hernandez.
