According to a recent report from Marca, Jasper Cillessen is interested in leaving Barcelona during the summer transfer window. The 29 year old is now believed to be tired of playing second fiddle to Marc-Andre ter Stegen, who has had the number one spot at the Nou Camp locked down for quite some time. Cillessen has been with Barca since back in 2016 when he made the move over from Ajax, and has also featured regularly for the Netherlands since his debut in 2013.

Cillessen certainly earned his move to Barca after a string of strong years with Ajax, but in the end, it didn’t really matter all too much to the Spanish giants. They continued to prioritise ter Stegen and, understandably, the Dutchman wants to go somewhere that he’ll be getting regular first team football.

If he decides to remain in the major European leagues, there would likely be no shortage of clubs interested in acquiring his signature in the summer.
