Barcelona have identified four candidates to reinforce the defensive midfielder position

Barcelona are ready to significantly strengthen the squad in the summer and are already starting to work on the appropriate candidates. One of the most painful positions for the Catalans after the departure of Sergio Busquets is the supporting midfield area, which is why the club's sporting director Deco is paying attention to it first and foremost.

And he has already worked out four candidates who could strengthen the composition of the "blaugrana". They have become known to the Diario Sport publication, and these are: Amadou Onana from Everton, Josua Kimmich from Bayern, Mats Wieffer from Feyenoord and Aleix Garcia from Girona.

Economically, the most favourable option would be the last one, as his contract has a clause of 15 million euros. A little more expensive, namely in 20-25 million, is estimated Wieffer. Onana costs 60 million euros, which is expensive for Barcelona at the moment, but the amount may decrease if Everton go to the Championship. At Kimmich the obstacle is his salary.

Recall, earlier we voiced the conditions under which Barcelona head coach Xavi can stay in the team.
