Barça is looking for a talented and versatile midfielder. Among the many names being considered in Barcelona, especially for Xavi, Gio Lo Celso is very popular. His current situation at Tottenham suggests that the Catalans could try to sign him in the next winter market
The FC Barcelona, in spite of having reinforced well in the past market of summer for the season 2023/2024, the sportive direction has not rested and already is considering different alternative and incorporations for the window of winter in January of 2024. His maximum priority is fichar a mediocentro, but no descartan other incorporations, this yes, become attached to what allow him the 'fair play' financial.
In this sense, has gone back to arise the name of Giovani Celso, the one who was one of the main wishes of Xavi Hernández for the past campaign. The Barça has showed interest in ficharlo in more than an occasion, but by different reasons has not concretised . The technician of Terrassa looks for a versatile midfield player and the Argentinian fits in this profile, since it can play in several positions: it can be mediocentro, pivote, inner, mediapunta, all squares where already has had time of game. A 'todoterreno' in what to the medullary zone of his combined respecta.
It will try the Barça fichar to Gio Celso in January of 2024?
The possibility of fichar to Gio Celso earns strength again, because although it is seeing action with the Tottenham in the Premier League, only has contested a total of 61' in two meetings, time of game that has been mermado by different physical mishaps. All these reasons have done that the rosarino have not attained to establish like titling in the diagram of Ange Postecoglou, by what in January could give his exit, being the FC Barcelona and the Real Betis the main interested.
If the Barça wants to fichar to the ex of Central Rosary, would have to disburse at least 15 million euros, price to the that the 'Spurs' would have priced to the Argentinian. This results complicated for the Catalan cast, that looks for to free mass salarial and also wishes to inscribe to Vitor Roque in January of 2024.
The Barça is to the expectation of what can occur with Guido Rodríguez
On the other hand, the most likely operation seem to be the one of Guido Rodríguez, which paradoxically could facilitate the arrival of Gio Celso, but to the Real Betis. If the pivote decides not renewing with the combined 'verdiblanco' and these negotiate a traspaso with the Barcelona square, the combined Andalusian would have the economic backrest to try the incorporation of the Argentinian.
