Bojan holds the key to Villa joining The Catalan after Unai Emery recommended the deal be agreed to if Bojan joined on loan, but El Barca aren't keen with the proposal, according to a report.

The media in Valencia believe that a deal is in the offing after talks saw the proposition of a fee of €40 million put forward plus Bojan and Caceres spending a year at Valencia.

While that was well received by los Che's coach, who views Bojan as the perfect replacement for David Villa, Barcelona want another player to go on loan instead.

Gudjohnsen, Hleb and Pedro have all been put forward to join Caceres at Valencia because Barcelona want Bojan to stay with them next term.

That could be the key to the deal though, Sport state, as the inclusion of the striker as a direct substitute for David Villa is seen as the perfect answer for the squad and to placate the fans.

Valencia director Fernando Gomez stated yesterday that no bids had been officially made for David Villa, but it is widely recognised that the talks which Barcelona revealed saw options put forward.

Madrid's believe that the price of the striker is now too high, despite having already spent €161 million on two players and they look set to miss out.
