Barcelona’s interest in the 19-year-old has been known for months with Groningen confirming the talks last month.
Speaking to AD, Alexander Bursac, the agent for Reis, has confirmed a deal is almost done, “The clubs are out.
“For Ludovit this is of course very beautiful. A top transfer. We hear this weekend or Monday when we fly to Barcelona to complete the transfer. “
Reis is set to sign for the Barcelona B team, and Bursac believes it is now up to the midfielder to show that he has the qualities for the first-team, “It remains a glass ball.
“It lies partly with the player himself. Apart from his footballing qualities: also with regard to his mentality, everything indicates that Ludo can go a long way. He is calm, intelligent and has both feet on the ground. “

Was really hoping he’d go to Ajax
Me too or stay. Barca will just loan him out or be B team. He has been very good & Marin is coming in from Standard a very good player can score & create but Reis would be more a Frenkie replacement & Marin for Donny of he goes.
But £7m is a lot to Groningen. But want Odegaard for £20m. Which he is finally playing but in huge wages.
Just hope Reis gets a good loan nor B team.
Who knows with Barca AJAX loan agreement could get him on loan with Claire-Tobido
