Perisic is ready to join Barcelona. |
According to Mundo Deportivo , Perisic is willing to take a pay cut to join the Camp Nou club. The 36-year-old midfielder believes that playing for Barcelona next season will increase his chances of being included in the national team and competing in the 2026 World Cup.
Perisic is currently a free agent after leaving PSV at the end of the 2024/25 season. The Dutch club offered the midfielder a two-year contract extension, but Perisic has not yet responded.
PSV wants to finalize Perisic's contract before their first friendly match against Real Union on July 5th. Coach Peter Bosz aims to quickly stabilize the squad to prepare thoroughly for the new season.
Perisic had an impressive season with PSV, scoring 16 goals and providing 11 assists. Barcelona will not have to pay a transfer fee for this deal, which is considered a significant factor as other targets like Marcus Rashford or Luis Diaz have cost a lot of money.
Coach Hansi Flick knows Perisic well, having played alongside him at Bayern Munich and won the 2020 Champions League. Flick values Perisic's experience and versatility, believing him to be a valuable, low-cost but impactful addition that will strengthen Barcelona's squad and lead them towards a more successful season.
At 36 years old, Perisic is still in top form. Recently, he scored in the 5-1 victory against the Czech Republic in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
