According to an update from SPORT, it has come to light that Barcelona are preparing to strengthen their defence during the January transfer window, with Hansi Flick keen to bring in another centre-back.
The Catalan side is exploring ways to increase their financial flexibility, but their restricted spending capacity means they will have to consider alternative transfer arrangements.
As such, the need for defensive reinforcements has become increasingly apparent following a series of injuries and disappointing results against Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid.
