Barcelona might not be done with their summer business just yet, as fresh reports from Spain suggest the club is plotting a final addition to Hansi Flick’s squad before the transfer window slams shut.
According to Diario Sport, the Catalan giants are quietly working behind the scenes to secure one more player—omo, if this happens, e go burst everywhere!
A Quiet Summer So Far
The Blaugrana have had a relatively calm transfer window compared to their usual big-money moves. So far, they’ve signed only three new faces: Joan García, Roony Bardghji, and Marcus Rashford.
Initially, many believed these arrivals had closed the door on further signings for the season. But it seems Barcelona’s sporting director, Deco, and his team have one more card up their sleeve.
The Profile They Want
Reports claim the target is an under-23 defender with significant potential for growth. The idea is to bring in a player who can train with the first team while also being available for Barcelona’s reserve squad when needed.
In Sport’s own words:
“Barça’s idea is to incorporate a defender of U23 age who has a lot of progression and who can be in the first team dynamic to help during the season.”
Why the Late Move?
While no specific name has been officially linked yet, it’s believed the club wants extra depth in defence to cope with the demands of the long season ahead. Injuries and fixture congestion could make this last-minute signing a smart piece of business.
Still, this is according to reports—so until Barcelona makes it official, fans will just have to keep refreshing their timelines. But knowing how transfer drama works, things can change overnight.
