Barcelona are allegedly prepared to part ways with two of their key players in order to win the race for Juventus defender Matthijs de Ligt.
With the Netherlands international approaching the midway point of his five-year contract, a number of top clubs are starting to monitor the 22-year-old's situation in Turin.
Earlier this week, it was suggested that Chelsea were happy to pay as much as £102m in order to win the race for the centre-back's signature.
Citing the Catalan press, Calciomercato says that Barcelona are willing to get creative in order to take De Ligt to Camp Nou next summer.
The report says that Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Memphis Depay would be allowed to depart the club in order to bring down the financial outlay for De Ligt.
While Depay has contributed three goals in six La Liga starts since his arrival earlier this summer, the forward may follow manager and compatriot Ronald Koeman out of the exit door.
