Jasper Cillessen set for Barcelona exit

Spanish media outlets are reporting that Barcelona goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen is eager to leave the club in the winter.

The 28-year-old has been playing second fiddle to Marc-Andre ter Stegen ever since he arrived from Ajax, making just one La Liga appearance in over a year.

Cillessen has clearly grown frustrated with the lack of first team football and he wants to leave for greener pastures in January.

Benfica and Crystal Palace are some of the clubs that attempted to secure his services in the summer and they are likely to be alerted by the latest developments.

In spite of the limited first team opportunities at club level, Cillessen remains a part of the Netherlands set-up and he made three appearances in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers.
