Barça have started to closely monitor Devyne Rensch, a promising youngster from Ajax. The right-back's contract expires at the end of the season
The draw against Celta made clear the need for FC Barcelona to strengthen its full-backs for next season. While names such as Alphonso Davies and Hugo Bueno were being explored on the left, on the right the Barcelona scouts have begun to closely follow Devyne Rensch, the young right-back from Ajax.
The 21-year-old Dutch 'jewel' is out of contract at the end of the season and his progress in recent months has skyrocketed. The defender stands out for his good ball handling, his speed and his offensive ability, qualities that have led him to be an under-21 international for the Netherlands and that have put him on Barça's radar, as reported by 'SPORT'.
The Premier League is also pressing for Rensch
Rensch's profile fits with what they are looking for in Barcelona, where they intend to incorporate a reliable complement on the right wing, at an affordable price and who has the capacity to project.
The Dutchman is a highly valued player in the market, so several Premier League clubs have also shown interest in signing him. Tottenham and Liverpool are believed to be two of Barça's main rivals in the bidding for Rensch, while Ajax have already presented him with a good offer for a renewal, so his future will continue to be discussed in the coming weeks.
