• Barcelona tried to sign Eyong in the final days of the summer window but lacked the financial room to complete the deal, according to SPORT.
• Eyong opted for Levante to secure regular minutes, with a contract that reportedly lifted his clause from €10 million to €30 million and included a Villarreal purchase option.
• Premier League clubs are reported to be ready to pay the €30 million price, increasing competition for his signature.
• Barcelona are confident Eyong would prioritize a move to Camp Nou if an opportunity arises, per the reporting.
• Planning for next season includes adding a new No. 9, with Robert Lewandowski potentially staying in a reduced role on lower wages and Eyong viewed as a serious option.
