"There's no mention of whether Barca are aiming to go for Ryerson in the winter or the summer, but it's previously been thought that the Catalans will have a very quiet January window. Joan Laporta has insisted Barcelona do have the financial capacity to make transfers should they wish but has also claimed that the club will only spend "if necessary." Would Ryerson be a good signing for Barca? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!"
Barcelona have opened initial contact to sign Julian Ryerson from Borussia Dortmund, according to Sky Sport Germany. The club values Ryerson's ability to play on either side of the defence and want to strengthen the backline. Ryerson is reportedly willing to leave Dortmund because he is not a regular under Niko Kovac and has made eight Bundesliga starts this season. There is no clear indication whether Barcelona would pursue the move in January or in the summer, with expectations of a quiet January window. Joan Laporta says Barcelona have the financial capacity to buy but will spend only if necessary.
