FC Barcelona give Las Palmas their option to buy on Halilovic

Halilovic is now on loan to Las Palmas until June 2018 from the German side

Las Palmas general sporting director Toni Cruz says that Barcelona have given the option to buy on Alen Halilovic to the Canarian club.

"We can execute this option to buy at any moment during the loan period," he explained.

That means the Croatian midfielder's future is now in Las Palmas' hands. 

"It's public that FC Barcelona have a right to buy - they had it with Hamburg, but while we are in the loan period, the clauses can only be executed by us. It was a transfer. For this I say that we are grateful for the actions of Hamburg, Barcelona and Halilovic's father."

Halilovic is now on loan to Las Palmas until June 2018 from the German side. Cruz added that the intense negotiations needed 'nine signatures'.
