Hayet Abidal, the estranged wife of Eric Abidal, has called him out on social media as she pushes for a divorce after he allegedly admitted to having an extra-marital affair with former Barcelona star Kheira Hamraoui.
However, Barcelona's financial situation means they have to prioritise, and with recruitment needed in other more pressing positions, talks have cooled.
What Carrasco said
The winger is aware of developments, and in a recent interview, he revealed that he sees himself doing the pre-season with Atletico Madrid, suggesting he is not expecting an offer before then.
His contract ends in June 2024, and he has been strongly linked to the Catalan giants, but he says he wants to be focused on the present and does not want to worry about transfers as the window has yet to be opened.
