      Mauricio Pochettino’s side remain “relaxed” over a potential transfer even after Osimhen signed a new lucrative contract with Napoli.

      When asked if the smears could be bitterness on Barcelona’s part, Bergvall said: “That could be the case, absolutely.
      “There was a lot of speculation, but it’s nice that everything has settled down and that I can focus only on Djurgarden.”
