On that note, here are the top Barcelona transfer news and rumours of the day as on 9th September 2020:

Lyon have reportedly not received any offers from Barcelona

Barcelona have agreed personal terms with Memphis Depay, but they are yet to make a move for the Dutchman. Lyon manager Rudi Garcia has revealed that the Catalan side have not made an offer for the former Manchester United star.

Talking to Goal, Garcia said:

“We do not know [about his future]. He is good, he played with his national team, where he had a very good first game. He needs to play, that’s good. We will see what we can do with him on Friday, there is no reason why he’s not in the group, unless he leaves by then. I have no news in that regard. I think Juninho has been clear, the president too, there is no offer for the moment.”

Ronald Koeman is keen on working with Depay at Barcelona, and the player has also admitted that there is interest from the Spanish club as well. Fabrizio Romano had earlier reported that talks are ongoing between Barcelona and Lyon for the striker's services.
