The process of assembling the ideal team for the upcoming season has begun at FC Barcelona. Adding a well-known player to the defense will be one of the goals for the summer transfer window. As a result, the board is already thinking about two players to take the position.
Inigo Martinez of Athletic Bilbao is the first person on the list since he has yet to reach an agreement to extend his contract past 2023. Hence, he would travel for free to Barca.
Aymeric Laporte, who has a contract with Man City until 2025 but would not object to leaving the club prior to the 2019–20 season and returning to Spanish football, has also come up in recent weeks, according to Barca.
The Spain international is one of Xavi’s favorite players, but acquiring him won’t be simple because the English team won’t let him go for a fair price, and as if that weren’t enough, a number of European teams are also keen on signing him.
As a result, according to “Football Insider,” PSG, who is searching for a replacement for Sergio Ramos, who is rumored to not be staying at the Parisian team next season, is the most recent to enter the race for Laporte.
The French champions could go to town financially to satisfy Man City’s need, which would allow them to bring the 28-year-old defender who was born in France back home. This sets them apart from Barcelona.
