Barcelona coach Quique Setien cannot guarantee Arturo Vidal staying beyond Friday's transfer deadline.

Vidal has been linked with Inter Milan for much of this month's winter market.

And Setien admitted yesterday: "I usually speak with the players, but in this particular case, I did not even know that he could leave.

“I cannot guarantee anything. These are decisions of the club, who knows what works best for everyone.

"We will not force anyone to leave."
