The right-back has been given permission to finalise a deal away from the La Liga champions and was absent from training on Friday Morning.
West Ham don’t want to stop there, however, and are keen on also signing midfielder Marc Casado from the Catalan giants.
Casado doesn’t appear to have any interest in joining Graham Potter’s struggling side and will turn down any chance to make the move.
