Barcelona are reportedly prepared to push on with their efforts to sign Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann.
After a five-year spell in Spain's capital, Griezmann will move on this summer, and Barcelona are the favourites to get a deal over the line.
The Catalan giants have been forced to play a waiting game, however, as a result of Griezmann's release clause not dropping to £107m until July 1.
According to Sport, the turn of the month will lead to Barcelona holding formal discussions with Atletico in a bid to complete the transfer.
Atletico are unlikely to want to prolong any negotiations due to their desire to bring in Joao Felix for a similar fee.
