FC Barcelona is clear: They will try to sign two 'top' players in the summer

If there is one thing clear at FC Barcelona, it is that they need to add 'top' players in the summer to continue strengthening a squad that already has great names but needs to be completed. The sporting director, Deco, apparently already has his priorities, as he has demonstrated by successfully renewing Ronald Araújo, Pau Cubarsí, Pedri González, Gavi, Iñigo Martínez, and Gerard Martín.

The great work of the football director of Barcelona will continue to explore the market in search of the best options so that the team can have greater depth thanks to what is signed. Although the coach of Barça, Hansi Flick, has never demanded more than what the club can provide, Deco will have to choose wisely which two signings he will pursue when the next summer transfer market opens.

Right-back and left winger to shake up the market

Although the season of Raphinha playing as a left winger is performing like an elite player with 27 goals and 20 assists in 40 matches, Deco maintains the idea of reinforcing that position with none other than the player from Liverpool, Luis Díaz, who has a value, according to Transfermarkt, of €85 million, and the forward is desired in the Blaugrana offices due to his versatility when playing on the wings.

On another note, FC Barcelona wants to acquire a right-back to compete with Jules Koundé, with whom the Catalan team already has a preliminary agreement for renewal until June 2030, according to 'SPORT'. To strengthen this area, the Catalan club is closely monitoring Andrei Ratiu (Rayo Vallecano), Vanderson (A.S. Monaco), and Marc Pubill (U.D. Almería).

Vanderson's performance in the 2024-25 season

• Matches: 34
• Minutes: 2,728'

Marc Pubill's performance in the 2024-25 season

Everything will depend on Barcelona's financial situation

The situation that can bring peace to the Blaugrana to sign the players they want is to let go of some they do not count on. An example of this is Ansu Fati, or also selling other figures in the summer that would generate significant income, and that would also create space in the 'Financial Fair Play'.
