Flick and Deco: Barcelona’s Summer Priority
Barcelona’s Summer Transfer Plans Underway
As the football world buzzes with the January transfer window, Barcelona is already looking ahead to the summer. With limited room in their salary cap for winter signings, the club is focusing on strategic planning for the upcoming transfer window.
Key Priorities for Barcelona
Sporting Director Deco and manager Hansi Flick have identified their top priorities for the summer transfer window. The club is eyeing a left winger and a central defender as their primary targets. Additionally, Flick and Deco believe that strengthening the full-back positions is crucial for the team’s success.
Focus on Right-Back Position
Recent reports suggest that Barcelona’s discussions have shifted towards prioritizing the right-back position for the upcoming transfer window. While left-back was initially a consideration, the focus has now turned to strengthening the right side of the defense. The club is looking to bring in a high-quality right-back, pending player departures and financial considerations.

The club is evaluating the potential departure of key players like Ronald Araujo and Frenkie de Jong to make room for new signings.
