Report: Barcelona announce new contract for Manchester City Target
Gavi was the subject of great interest from a number of clubs during this period when his contract appeared to be up in the air.
The club and the player have been in talks about a new contract for several months, but talks stalled at one point and interested clubs admitted their interest in the midfielder.
Liverpool and Manchester City were among those clubs, but it now looks like Barcelona will announce a new contract for the player in the coming weeks.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are looking for the best date to announce a new contract for Spanish midfielder Gavi. Sources at the club say it will be announced as early as October.

Manchester City are interested in Gavi, but the deal was and still is an extremely difficult deal to achieve. The only way Manchester City could possibly be is by offering Bernardo Silva in return.
The player is now poised to hand his future over to the Catalan Giants, and La Masia graduates rarely leave the club once their future is set.
Manchester City will look for alternatives if Bernardo Silva comes to Barcelona in January or next summer, but it is likely that Gavi will not appear on the proposed lists now.
He is one of the most highly regarded young players in the world and Barcelona look like they will keep him.
