Valencia striker Paco Alcacer wants to move to Barcelona.
Los Che president Lay Hoon has warned Barca off the Spain international in recent days.
However, Alcacer has told Barca reps he wants the deal to happen - including sports chief Robert Fernandez.
Barca are now urging the player to demand a transfer from Valencia to accelerate negotiations.
The Liga champions hope to do business for around €30 million.
