According to ‘ESPN’, Barcelona are planning to strengthen their squad in the January transfer window and already have their wishlist ready to negotiate with clubs. Spanish coach Xavi Hernandez wants to reinforce the midfield at all costs due to recent injuries to his squad.
Xavi Hernandez’s Barcelona have gone into the international break with several doubts about their squad. They are not getting the results they had hoped for as they sit in third place on 21 points, three behind Real Madrid, who occupy top spot.
According to ‘ESPN’, the Catalan giants already have their wishlist for the January transfer window. Spanish coach Xavi Hernandez wants to reinforce his midfield after the recent injuries of Pedri Gonzalez and Frenkie de Jong.
The same media outlet reports that the board are interested in signing Bayern Munich’s Joshua Kimmich, who was close to joining Barcelona in the summer, Liverpool’s Thiago Alcantara, Real Betis’ Guido Rodriguez and Arsenal’s Jorginho.
The Catalan side also want to reinforce their defence but they are not as desperate as they are in midfield.
Alejandro Balde is a key player in Xavi Hernandez’s squad and will stay for several seasons at Camp Nou. Meanwhile, the board have already reached a reported agreement with Manchester City for the permanent transfer of Joao Cancelo.
