If they had stayed above the first apron, league rules prevented them from signing a bought-out player who made more than the midlevel exception this season ($14 million). Keeping Conley on ice for right now will help keep the Wolves under that apron, and allow them to sign a bigger name, who made a bigger salary on his previous team, than they would have otherwise.

FC Barcelona have been working on securing the signing of teenage wonderkid Ajay Tavares from Norwich City for weeks now.

The 16-year-old attacking prodigy is regarded as one of the most exciting young talents in England and is already a part of the Canaries’ Under-18 setup despite his age.

Keeping with their recent strategy of acquiring youth prospects, the Blaugrana have been working behind the scenes for some time now.

Tavares’ deal closed, FIFA approval awaited

Now, providing an update on the situation, SPORT reports that the Barcelona sporting department has had Tavares’ signing practically agreed for weeks.

Born in 2009, the 16-year-old wonderkid holds a Portuguese passport, which is crucial in enabling him to change clubs and countries while still a minor.

If he held only British nationality, he would have to wait until turning 18.

At present, the deal is stalled pending FIFA’s approval, as the football governing body must complete the necessary administrative procedures before granting authorisation for the transfer and allowing him to move to Barcelona.

The personal terms with the young talent have already been agreed, and the Catalan club are simply awaiting official clearance.

Tavares is a skilful winger with potential, and has been closely monitored by the club’s scouting department for some time.

The plan is for the youngster, currently in his first year at youth level, to join Pol Planas’ Juvenil A side with the prospect of progressing to Barça Atletic.
