Barcelona has lost their main goalkeeper, Marc-André ter Stegen, for an extended period. While they found a temporary solution in Wojciech Szczęsny, the club had initially sought a renowned long-term replacement. However, they will have to abandon plans for an expensive signing.
Details: According to Diario Sport, Barcelona has decided against pursuing Porto’s goalkeeper Diogo Costa due to the financial terms of the deal. The transfer fee for Costa could reach up to €75 million, which is prohibitive for the Catalan club. Even the €40 million that Manchester City is reportedly willing to pay is considered too steep for Barcelona.
Reminder: With ter Stegen out for the rest of the season, Barcelona chose not to rely solely on Iñaki Peña, leading to their decision to bring in Szczęsny, who had announced his retirement last summer.
