FC Barcelona's pursuit of Club Brugge winger Jesse Bisiwu stalls over price

FC Barcelona remains interested in 18‑year‑old Belgian winger Jesse Bisiwu, who impressed in the Youth League while playing for Club Brugge. The Spanish club submitted an initial offer, but Club Brugge rejected it, stating the asking price exceeds what Barcelona is prepared to pay.

Negotiations have been paused, with Barcelona describing the deal as “on hold but not ruled out.” Because Bisiwu is entering the final year of his contract, Club Brugge may reconsider its stance later in the transfer window, but for now the clubs are financially far apart.

Barça’s football directors say they will monitor the situation closely and act only if the Belgian side lowers its demands, maintaining a cautious approach amid broader spending constraints.
