After being eliminated from the Copa Libertadores, Palmeiras might allow the sale

Barcelona were otherwise planning to bring him in next summer

Barcelona are thinking about the possibility of signing Palmeiras defender Yerri Mina with their nine million euro option to buy. They were planning to sign the Colombian next summer but his team's elimination from the Copa Libertadores means they could strike now.

In Brazil they say Barcelona are sounding out the idea with the player's people,  but in these moments they have priorities in other positions.

Yerri Mina, who has interested numerous teams, is nicely tied to Barcelona thanks to their option to buy. The Blagurana have been following the Colombia international's progress. 

The idea was to take a decision on him after the Russia World Cup, with Palmeiras wanting to keep him for the Copa Libertadores. But now they're out, the scene has changed. 

Valverde wanted a centre-back, aiming for Inigo Martinez, but the club did not want to pay his 32 millon euro release clause.
