Arda Turan's future has become complicated

Barcelona will find it hard to sell the Turkish playmaker next summer

Barcelona think it will be hard to sell Arda Turan in the summer. He is on loan to Basaksehir Istanbul for the rest of the time of his contract, the current season and two more.

Barca tried last summer and let him go on loan back to Turkey. He has not reached his best level there. However he was sent off against Sivasspor and after pushing, insulting and threatening a linesman he was hit with a ban for 16 games. 

One of the main obstacles to selling him is his high salary. Barca had a great chance to sell him to the Chiense Super League for 50m euros but in the end the club decided to keep him until the end of the campaign. 

Arda had filled in well for Neymar but then became a sub again and lost his form.
