Barcelona’s Quest for Five(5) Summer Signings Across Four Positions – Latest Updates
Stay informed on Barcelona’s ambitious summer transfer plans as they target reinforcements in multiple key positions
Barcelona, despite financial constraints, are determined to bolster their squad this summer. Surprisingly, despite signing Vitor Roque in January, they are eyeing a forward reinforcement.
The closest to a deal is Guido Rodriguez, set to fortify the pivot position, potentially replacing Oriol Romeu. However, Barça’s sights are also set on a marquee signing, with Joshua Kimmich and Amadou Onana topping their wishlist. Kimmich, a long-standing target of Xavi Hernandez, hinges on Bayern Munich’s contract negotiations. Meanwhile, Onana remains a distant possibility, with Everton and Chelsea vying for his signature.
A left winger is another priority, with the club in talks with Dani Olmo’s agent, although RB Leipzig’s reluctance to lower his €60m release clause poses a hurdle.
Should Vitor Roque depart on loan, Barça may seek an alternative to aging Robert Lewandowski as their number nine.
Additionally, doubts over Joao Cancelo and the imminent departure of Marcos Alonso prompt the club to explore full-back options, albeit unclear in which position.
Despite potential alternatives like Marc Guiu, it’s notable that Barcelona hesitates to rely on their €61m acquisition to support Lewandowski. Ultimately, the success of these endeavors hinges on Barcelona’s ability to offload players, which could significantly shape their summer.
