Barça Has One of the Best Midfields in All of Europe. Pedri and Gavi, two of the greatest emerging talents in world soccer, bring quality, dynamism and vision of the game. Frenkie de Jong, who has taken a step forward, stands out for his ability to break lines and distribute the ball.
But Barça's wealth in this position doesn't stop there. Dani Olmo, star signing this season, adds a combination of dribbling and finishing that further strengthens the offensive play. Meanwhile, players like Marc Casadó, Fermín López and Pablo Torre guarantee quality backup and depth in the squad.
Barça Is Very alert to Market Opportunities
Despite having a top-level midfield, Deco doesn't rule out further strengthening the squad. The club remains alert to opportunities that may arise in the market.
Barça's strategy in recent years has been to bet on young talent with projection and potential for revaluation. However, in an increasingly competitive soccer environment, the sports management knows they can't let their guard down. While the main focus is on improving the forward line, reinforcements in other areas aren't ruled out if good opportunities arise.
Investment Will Go to the Attack
With the midfield well covered, Barcelona's major spending next summer will be directed at strengthening the attack. Two names are on the priority list: Rafael Leão and Nico Williams. Both wingers are the type of player the club is looking for: fast, disruptive and capable of creating danger in every action.
Rafa Leão Is a Game-Changer in One-on-One Situations and Would Be a Statement of Authority in Europe. His ability to make a difference in the final third makes him an ideal option to give Barça a new dimension. Meanwhile, Nico Williams has shown at Athletic that he has the potential to succeed in a top European team and has a clause of only 60 million.
A Great Option at Juventus
But as mentioned before, Barça is closely monitoring several affordable options. According to 'Fichajes.net', the blaugrana club is closely following the situation of Weston McKennie, an American midfielder who has a contract with Juventus until 2026.
McKennie is a versatile player, capable of performing in various midfield positions, making him an interesting option for Barça. His energy, recovery ability and arrival in the opponent's area could bring a different profile to the blaugrana midfield. Everything will depend on how his contractual situation evolves and whether the Italian club is willing to negotiate.
