The directive comprises that, once LaLiga approve the plan of economic feasibility, the priority aims to reinforce the centre of the field, since the exit of Sergio Busquets has left an empty that they will be difficult to cover, although the market offers alternatives very interesting.

In this sense, before the goodbye of the captain, the Barça had several names on the table to reinforce the right side, considering that, at present, the staff does not have a natural player in this position. However, today luce more distant the possibility to invest in a right side and everything aims to that, in addition to the signing of Leo Messi, the aim of the managerial is fichar a pivote and a forward.

Araújo Would be the owner of the right side in the 2023/24

Like this the things, Ronald Araújo aims to consolidate like the right side headline of the Barça in the beginning of the 2023/24. The 'charrúa' has been the more regulate in this position in the second stretch of the season and, except surprise, Sergi Roberto will be the main variant to the Uruguayan. Jules Koundé, the one who began the 22/23 like titling in the right-handed lane, aims to remain in the centre of the saga, where clearly luce more comfortable.

The another alternative by right that can use the egarense is Alejandro Balde, the one who already tested luck in some party of the season to profile changed. This option only would implement in cases of maximum urgency, as even Koundé would be above the canterano like variant for this place. By left, if it confirms the goodbye of Jordi Alba, Marcos Alonso will be again the spare of Balde, whereas Andreas Christensen and Iñigo Martínez would litigate by the titularity like second head office.

Foyth And Pavard, options 'forgotten' for the Barça

The urgency by fichar a relief for Busquets (Martín Zubimendi and Joshua Kimmich, favourites for now) have forced to the directive to forget of names that, weeks backwards, lucían very positioned to turn into reinforcements culés in summer. This is the case of Juan Foyth and Benjamin Pavard, two of the alternatives that the club sondeó from the wintry market to reinforce the right-handed side. In addition to the option of a born pivote, Xavi also wants a mediocentro offensive to improve the depth in attack, being İlkay Gündogan the favourite of the technical body.
