La Liga
FC Barcelona has clear priorities in the final stretch of the transfer market: to secure a right-back and a left winger before the closing of the transfer window. Under the direction of Deco, the club has decided to focus on strengthening these two key positions, putting aside the possibility of incorporating a defensive midfielder, which had initially been considered.
The urgency for these acquisitions has intensified following the departure of Ilkay Gündogan, who will return to Manchester City. This move frees up space in the squad and offers the Catalan club the opportunity to make new signings and register them in LaLiga.
Flick wants a right-back and a winger for Barcelona
-Right-back: Coach Hansi Flick has been clear in his desire to have a right-back who can provide greater depth and dynamism on the wing. In this regard, Joao Cancelo, currently at Manchester City, is the name that has been most talked about to fill that vacancy, given his offensive profile and versatility.
-Left winger: Simultaneously, the search for a left winger is a priority for Flick, who needs a player capable of creating danger in the final third of the field. In recent hours, two options have emerged on the Blaugrana’s agenda: Rafael Leão from AC Milan and Federico Chiesa from Juventus. While Leão is known for his power and ability to break defensive lines, the option of Chiesa could be more feasible. Despite his quality, the Italian has been considered dispensable by Vecchia Signora, which could facilitate negotiations.
With only ten days left in the transfer market, Barcelona is in a race against time to close these signings and strengthen a squad that will seek to compete on all fronts this season.
