Barcelona hope to present wing-back Lucas Digné on Thursday

Barcelona are said to be very close to signing French player Lucas Digné from PSG, he's been on loan at Roma this past season. With the departure of Dani Alves, Barça are looking to strengthen the left hand side of defence.

If it all goes to plan, Digné will be presented on Thursday to the Camp Nou. The club has kept shtum about this latest arrival, but sources close to the club have assured AS that "this Thursday you'll probably see an official presentation".

Ever since the young promise shone at Lille Barça have had their eye on him, and even tried to bring him in two seasons ago, but Digné preferred to stay in his home country and in Ligue 1 to continue his development.
