The former Barcelona player was announced as Luis Enrique's successor last week Monday, and is expected to have a busy transfer window ahead of him.

It has been reported that Valverde has been tasked with revamping the ageing squad and adding more quality to rival the depth of Real Madrid's squad.

According to AS, Jeremy Mathieu and Arda Turan are the first two players set to leave the Camp Nou.

Mathieu has only one year left on his contract, and reportedly has offers from Olympique Marseille as well as clubs in Turkey, and it has been claimed that Barca are prepared to let him go for a minimal fee in order to get him of the club's wage bill.

Turan is also said to be on their axe list, but they will want to recoup a large portion of what they paid for him from Atletico Madrid. The Turkish playmaker has reportedly received offers from Chinese clubs, but apparently wants to stay in Europe, with latest reports linking him with a move to Arsenal.
