Some players are certain to go, while others may find it harder to leave Camp Nou

Douglas, Vermaelen, Munir and Tello are certain to find other clubs before next season

With the season over and all eyes on the transfer market, FC Barcelona are working on incomings and outgoings. 

Up to 10 names have been linked with "Operation Exit" at Camp Nou, although each situation is different. Some know they don't have a future under Ernesto Valverde, othere want to try their luck elsewhere and some still don't know what next season holds. 

CERTAIN TO GO 

There are various players who won't be in Barça's first team when the new season begins. It's just a quesion of whether they leave on loan or on a permanent deal. 

Douglas Pereira: Last summer he wanted to remain in Spain to get a community passport. With his loan at Sporting he achieved his wish -- he's been in the country for three years now -- and now it's not out of the question he could return to Brazil if he doesn't have an option in Europe. He has a deal until 2019 and another loan in La Liga has not been ruled out. 

Thomas Vermaelen: His loan move to Roma was once again a disaster due to injuries. He has a deal with Barça until 2019 but doesn't have a future under Valerde. The solution could be another loan move. Watford are interested. 

Munir El Haddadi: Valencia seem to have decided not to take up their option to sign him for 12 million euros. There's no shortage of interest in Munir from other Spanish clubs, though. A last option could be Ajax. 

Cristian Tello: The winger spent last season at Fiorentina and did well and both parties would like to carry on together. But the problem is the Italian side don't want to pay the fee to buy him. His agent, meanwhile, hasn't ruled out a return to Barça, where he has a deal until 2018. 

ALMOST CERTAIN...

Arda Turan: The midfielder has not had a good time at Barcelona and his name is on the transfer list. He's been linked with Arsenal, Galatasaray, the Chinese Super League... Barça's desire is to move him on, receive a large fee and free up some money on the wage bill. Arsene Wenger feels the Catalan club's demand for 30 million euros is too high, though. His deal runs until 2020. 

Sergi Samper: The young midfielder will be back in for pre-season on July 12. After his spell with Granada, he returns to Barcelona without having kicked on as hoped. Valverde will now decide what the future has in store for him. A loan move or a chance with the first team? In principle, it's most likely he will be moved on after pre-season. His contract is until 2019 and his release clause is 50 million euros. 

UNCLEAR FUTURE

Jeremy Mathieu: The French defender hasn't played since the loss to Juventus and his season was affected by injuries. Barça want to sell him, but he would be happy to sit on his contract. He has offers from Greece, Portugal and Turkey. 

Aleix Vidal: It's not been easy for Vidal since he returned to Barcelona. Cast aside by Luis Enrique, he was then seriously injured after regaining his coach's confidence. He returned for the Copa final, though, and is working hard to be in top shape for the next season. But Barça are after a new right-back, with Hector Bellerin the preferred option. Vidal's contract runs until 2020 and his release clause is 60 million euros. He has been linked with Italian clubs but insists he will start the season at Camp Nou. 

Lucas Digne: The young left-back arrived at Camp Nou last summer and even though his participation has decreased, it's more than likely he will have a second season fighting with Jordi Alba for a place in Valverde's side. The only problem is he wants to be in the France squad for next summer and risks not making Russia 2018 if he doesn't play often. His contract runs until 2022. Lyon have been linked. 

Rafinha Alcántara: Injuries have always been Rafinha's enemy and have stopped him taking advantage of the confidence Luis Enrique has in him, He's played for Barça but never regularly. Like other team-mates, he has his mind fixed on the World Cup. There's interest from Juvetus, Roma, Liverpool and Valencia. But there's a double handicap: he's still recovering from an injury and Barça want 30 million euros. His contract is until 2020 and his release clause is 75 million euros.
