Barcelona have made a bid for the Argentina star but Atletico continue to insist he is not for sale. Meanwhile, Joan Laporta has hinted that Barcelona could move on if the situation remains the same by the end of the month.
Junior Kroupi has been touted as a potential alternative throughout the summer but signing him may not be easy either.
Bournemouth are eager to keep hold of the 20-year-old and have slapped a lofty 100 million euro price tag on their young star this summer.
However, Junior Kroupi is believed to be keen to play for Barcelona, if the opportunity arises, with the Catalans aware they really need to bring in a replacement for Robert Lewandowski before the start of the season.
