Barça have pulled out of a deal for the midfielder

Jean Michael Seri's agent, in an interview with RAC 1, has revealed that Paris Saint-Germain tried to mess up Barcelona's move for the midfielder.

"PSG called Nice three days ago to try and screw Barça over," said Franklin Mala.

The agent also spoke about Barça's last minute decision to pull out of a deal for Seri for 'technical reasons'. 

"No one said anything to me [about that] because they already knew his qualities," he explained. 

Mala also said an agreement was close and that there have been talks with other clubs in the last few days: "It was possible to reach an agreement, Barça and Nice were negotiating yesterday (Tuesday) and they were in France." 

Seri's future is now uncertain, but he's been discared as an option by Barcelona. The player has offers from England and Italy and could leave Nice before the window shuts.
