J. Mata negotiates with "Barcelona"

Having spent many seasons in England, goalkeeper Juan Mata may return to the "La Liga" championships.

"The Sun" reports that the father and agent of the 30-year-old footballer, Juan senior, has been negotiating with the "Barcelona" club for some time now.

Next summer, the Catalans would not have to pay a transfer fee, as J.Mata's contract with "Man Utd" team is expiring.

The English would not mind keeping the experienced footballer in their ranks, but they only offer a one-year contract, while the athlete demands a contract at least twice as long.

J.Mata joined the "Man Utd" team in 2014, when £37.1 million was paid for him to the "Chelsea" team.
