Barcelona have been working on a deal for Jonathan Tah over the past few weeks, with the aim of bringing him in from next season. Although they are firm favorites to get his signature, it cannot be taken for granted that an agreement will be reached.
With less than six months left on his contract with Bayer Leverkusen, Tah can officially start talks with other clubs. His representatives have been speaking to Barcelona, who have been working hard to secure an agreement, but according to Florian Plettenburg, it has not yet been reached.

It is understandable that Barcelona are desperate to complete the signing of Tah as soon as possible, given that there have been many other clubs interested in acquiring his services from next summer. The last thing they need is delays, and it will be interesting to see if the current situation with Dani Olmo and Pau Victor has had any effect on the German defender.
