Barcelona decide on first January target

Barcelona have set their FIRST target for the January transfer window.

Barcelona is said to be considering Dutch international Jerdy Schouten as a possible January transfer target.

Due to injury concerns in Hansi Flick’s midfield, Barcelona is considering a mid-season transfer despite the associated risks.

According to Marca, the club is considering a €25 million bid for the 27-year-old, with PSV Eindhoven open to negotiations.

Although Barcelona made initial inquiries over the summer, they did not submit a formal offer at that time, opting instead to focus on Bernal and Casado.

While Flick intends to continue with Casado for now, the 20-year-old remains relatively inexperienced and untested over a full season at the top level.
