Press reports indicate that FC Barcelona is finalizing its first deal for the upcoming summer transfer window at the direction of head coach Hansi Flick. Notably, Barcelona signed Dani Olmo from Leipzig last summer for 60 million euros, payable in installments.
According to the Catalan newspaper “Sport,” Ghanaian midfielder Thomas Partey of Arsenal is among Barcelona’s targets for next summer as they look to strengthen their midfield. The report highlights that the 31-year-old Partey is being considered for a free transfer in 2025 and is highly valued within the club. Additionally, despite Bernal’s injury, Barcelona appears to be prioritizing other positions as they prepare for the transfer market.
Deco and the sports management team will remain attentive to Thomas and will keep tracking his status as a key target for Hansi Flick. The newspaper noted that Barcelona’s sports management is fully aware of potential market opportunities in the near or medium future.
