There are several players who, after ending their contract with their respective clubs in the summer, were left without a team and, in January, they will go out to look for a new destination... Could one of them be of interest to FC Barcelona?

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The market of free agents has been one of which more has attacked the FC Barcelona in the last years. Memphis Depay, Eric García, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Andreas Christensen, Franck Kessié, Ílkay Gündogan or Iñigo Martínez have been some of the players that have recalado in the City Condal after seeing expire his agreement with another club. It has not been necessary to pay a traspaso by them and has been one 'help' for the Barcelona economy because, besides, have arrived in favourable conditions and 'forgiving' money.

All, except the gabonés, coincide in that they have arrived to the Barça in summer, but exists in the panorama the possibility to go out to fichar to free agents in January. And it is that, after the last window of transfers estival, were a few the footballers that remained without team and that from the Barcelona sportive direction could be evaluating to reinforce the team of Xavi Hernández, in winter, to cost zero.

The list of players free for the market of wintry signings

The most striking case is the one of David of Gea, the one who did not renew his agreement with the Manchester United and is free. After the injury of Thibaut Courtois, was very linked with the Real Madrid, but the cession of Kepa Arrizabalaga imposed in the dispatches of Santiago Bernabéu. The guardameta of 33 years will look for team from this time on, although it already has been related with a movement to Saudi Arabia to finish the 2023/2024.

Another footballer that remained without club was Jesse Lingard, after finishing agreement with the Nottingham Forest, where there was recalado in the past season after his go through the Manchester United. The mediapunta of 30 years, that in his moment arrived to colarse in the list of players more stood out of the Premier League, can be one of the surprises in January. Likewise, it is the case of Xeka, mediocentro Portuguese that finalised his bond with the Stade Rennes in June and is free. Before, it had gone through the rows of the Lille between 2018 and 2022. It has been linked with the Real Celtic Club.

In the section of the mediocentros also is José Campaign, the one who looks for club after having finalised his agreement with the Raise, where was between the 2016 and 2023. It had suffered a break of the ligament crossed previous of the right knee to finals of the month of April and received the high doctor does some weeks. The Raise did not explain more with him and expects that in January can go back to compete. Podría Finish remaining in the Ciutat of Valencia, although there are not offers.

The attackers 'free' in the market

An alternative free to reinforce the leading will be Hélder Coast, extreme right of 29 years that looks for team after remaining out of the plans of the Leeds United. It had formed part of the payroll of the English picture between 2020 and 2023, with cessions to Valencia (2021/2022) and To the-Ittihad (2022/2023). It could be repescado by the group 'ché'. Another option is Douglas Coast (33), in research of club after his go through Los Angeles Galaxy. In the same section of right extremes, appears the option of Karim Bellarabi, the one who left the Bayer Leverkusen after twelve seasons in the last summer. They have not had novelties on his future, by what the option that it decide to hang the boots to the 33 years is not entirely descartada.
