With less than two days remaining in the summer transfer window, Real Madrid currently has no plans to bring in new players, while their main rivals are aiming to make a signing. The 2024 transfer period has been disappointing for Barcelona. After initial excitement about Nico Williams, who chose to stay at the new San MamΓ©s, Barcelona managed to secure Dani Olmo.
According to the Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, Barcelona is targeting Jonathan Tah, a 28-year-old German centre-back. Although he has lost his starting spot under coach Xabi Alonso, he remains a top player for the club. The paper notes that if Alonso blocks his departure, Barcelona could miss a key opportunity to strengthen their defense, especially since Coparci has not met expectations.
The renewed interest from Joan Laporta’s club has caught attention, as Tah would be a significant boost to Barcelona’s defense. The newspaper concluded that, as is often the case with Barcelona’s transfer pursuits, the primary hurdle is the club’s strained financial situation.
