Barça is clear about its transfer plan for the summer market although there is still half a championship to play. The team's needs are quite defined by Deco and Flick: a winger, a full-back, and a center-back. Although the possibilities may vary depending on the team's evolution in the second half of the season, the sports management is already working on finding these key pieces.
As for the center-back, everything points to Jonathan Tah being the chosen one, who would arrive for free to the culé team. The German player, who plays for Bayer Leverkusen, will finish his contract in the summer, making him an attractive option for reinforcement.
Rafa Leão, the first on the list
Meanwhile, Barça is also clear that the priority is the signing of a standout winger who can provide more depth in the attack. The favorite for this position is Rafael Leão, AC Milan's star. The Portuguese has shown outstanding performance in recent years in Italy, and his signing would be a significant impact both sportingly and commercially for the culés.
However, Barça also has an important alternative in case the operation for Leão becomes complicated and remains Nico Williams. Although his performance has declined at Athletic Club, he is still highly valued by the sports management.
An important player could shake up the market
In addition to these moves, Barça will not lose sight of a player who could be a great market opportunity in the future, and that is Jamal Musiala. The German's contract ends in 2026, and his potential and quality make him a long-term target for the Catalan club.
Barça knows that Musiala could become a key piece in its game scheme. If the opportunity arises, Barça wouldn't hesitate to make a significant effort for his signing, knowing that his arrival could be a truly luxurious reinforcement.
He keeps rejecting Bayern and would only go to Barça
Musiala's situation is increasingly uncertain in Germany, which has led several clubs to take an interest in his future. According to 'El Nacional.cat', the German player has rejected Bayern Munich's renewal offers, which has opened the door to a possible departure from the Bavarian club.
Additionally, Musiala would have also rejected an approach from Liverpool. According to the same source, his intention would be clear: if he decides to leave Bayern, he would do so only to make the leap to Barça. This factor could be decisive in the battle for his signing, and Barça could have an advantage in this regard if he ends up deciding to leave Bayern Munich.
