FC Barcelona wants to steal a transfer target from Bayern Munich

With just a few days left until the transfer market closes, FC Barcelona are still working to strengthen the squad led by Hansi Flick and now they have set their sights on Jonathan Tah. The Bayer Leverkusen centre-back is one of the best in the Bundesliga in his position and has been linked with Vincent Kompany's Bayern Munich.

Deco and the rest of the club's sporting management could go for the 28-year-old defender, in case Eric García says goodbye to Barcelona. The player from Martorell will have to make a decision about his future quickly. Right now, he can choose to continue under the orders of the German coach, knowing that he will not be taken into account too much or join Míchel's Girona, who are interested in his services.

Jonathan Tah to Barcelona?

Let's remember that Tah is a player that Flick knows very well from his time with the German national team and believes that he could fit well into his squad, although he is not the only option that the Catalan team is considering. The 1.95-metre-tall international has a market value of around 30 million euros according to 'Transfermarkt'. However, it is estimated that Leverkusen could accept between 20 and 25 million to let him leave Germany.

The centre-back's contract ends in 2025 and has not renewed with Leverkusen, so they will have to sell him before August 30 or let him go for free next summer. Curiously, Bayern Munich have been interested in the player to reinforce Kompany's defence, but it seems that his future is far from the Bavarians because the board of the current Bundesliga champions do not want to reinforce a direct rival.

Tah is a very good resource for any team since he is good in aerial duels and usually imposes himself in one-on-one situations, so at Can Barça they would approve his signing if they needed him. At this point, they need to make a decision as soon as possible if they don't want to miss the opportunity to get a low-cost reinforcement for this season.
