Marcos Alonso is expected to leave Barcelona without any transfer fee at the end of the season after spending two years with the team from Catalonia.
The 33-year-old has had a season with a lot of injuries, suffering a back issue in December and has not played in a La Liga match since October.
The Spain international joined Barca from Chelsea in 2022 and appeared regularly in his first season, making 37 appearances across all competitions and winning La Liga in the process.
The defender joined on an initial one-year contract but signed a new contract in January last year to stay on until the summer of 2024.
However, the injuries have cost him and his time at the Camp Nou is set to come to an end this summer, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
Alonso has returned from injury and was on the bench for the 1-0 win over Las Palmas on 30 March in La Liga, hoping to finish his time at Barcelona strongly.
Xavi’s team are next in action in their Champions League quarter-final tie with PSG, starting in Paris on 10 April.
Alonso had a wonderful six years with Chelsea after joining from Fiorentina in 2016 for a fee of around £24m.
The Spaniard went on to make 212 appearances, scoring 29 goals, and winning the Premier League, Champions League, Europa League and FA Cup.
Barca veteran Sergi Roberto is also out of contract at the end of this season and could join Alonso in leaving the club in the summer.
The 32-year-old has won seven La Liga titles and two Champions League titles with the Catalans, making over 350 appearances for his boyhood club.
