De Jong’s place in Barcelona would be replaced by Carlos Soler, currently performing in Valencia.

Valencia decided to react to these reports, which issued an official announcement. “In response to an article published in AS on Monday, we deny the existence of any agreement or ongoing negotiations with Barcelona on the transfer of Carlos Soler,” it reads.
“The club is negotiating openly with the player and his agents to extend the contract,” added Valencia’s authorities. The team at Estadio Mestalla also posted a telling post on Twitter, addressing journalists and asking them not to “lie”.
Carlos Soler has played 34 matches in all competitions, scoring twelve goals and noting five assists. Despite his good disposition, he is in tenth place with 43 points.
