Barcelona pull back from deal for Eibar right-back Ander Capa

Barcelona have pulled back from making an emergency signing move for Eibar right-back Ander Capa.

Sport says it's true that Robert Fernandez had been following the player's development, but finally there will not be any move to try and sign him.

The elevated demands from Eibar, who want the player's 10 million euro release fee, Barça's preference for a loan deal until the end of the season and the defeat in Paris have seen Capa disappear off the map.

Capa, 25, was one of the right-backs on the shortlist drawn up by Robert to replace the injured Aleix Vidal.
