TRANSFERS MASCHERANO TO LEAVE BARCELONA AS HEBEI MOVE LOOMS

-
The Catalans have announced the Argentine will leave the club after seven and a half seasons, with a move to China on the cards
Argentina international Mascherano is expected to continue his career with a reported €10million switch to Hebei China Fortune ahead of the 2018 Chinese Super League season.
The 33-year-old will be granted an "institutional farewell" by Barca on Wednesday, with president Josep Maria Bartomeu and the first-team squad to be in attendance.
Mascherano has seen his game time severely restricted since Ernesto Valverde's appointment, making just 12 appearances in all competitions as he sits behind Gerard Pique, Thomas Vermaelen and Samuel Umtiti in the pecking order at centre-back.
With Yerry Mina having arrived from Palmeiras this month, Barca have let the versatile defender depart.
Mascherano joined Barca from Liverpool in 2010 and made 334 appearances, winning 18 titles during one of the most successful eras in the club's history.
His haul in Spain included four LaLiga wins and a pair of Champions League triumphs, though he did not score his first goal for the club until he was invited to take a penalty in the 7-1 thrashing of Osasuna in April of last year – his 319th outing for the Catalan giants.
Lionel Messi, Phillip Cocu and Dani Alves are the only three foreign players to have made more Barca appearances than Mascherano, who transitioned to centre-back having joined the club as a midfielder.

Ex-Lagos Commissioner of Information & Strategy, and newly-appointed Commissioner for Tourism, Arts & Culture, Mr Steve Ayorinde, has restated his commitment to pursue his duties with a more holistic approach, assuring also that the landmark achievements of the present administration in the entertainment sector will not be relented in spite of any change in government. On the heels of the just-concluded One Lagos Fiesta held in five districts of Lagos, Ayorinde told Saturday Tribune in an interview that the movie industry like other industries will receive more government intervention and support in 2018.  He identified the fight against piracy and procurement of permit for movie practitioners as the two major issues before the ministry. He said, “We wouldn’t be limited in our support to one particular aspect of the art. We are already engaging Lagos visual artists by putting them in charge of art installations all over the city.
