Aside from the Catalan Club and Real Madrid, Davies is also a target of several European clubs like Liverpool.

Deco’s interest with Davies comes with a purpose since Barcelona will likely lose Marcos Alonso to free agency this summer.

However, Davies’ asking price may be too much for the Catalan club. The Ghanaian-born footballer is looking at €12 million a year in salary.
