There is still time to decide. I don't feel any pressure and I don't know which path to take right now,

Joan Cancelo is reportedly set to leave Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal in the January transfer exit and is being linked with a number of clubs, including Barcelona.

FC Barcelona are looking for a new signing in the centre-back department heading into the upcoming January transfer window. The injury to Andreas Christensen has forced the sporting department, led by Deco, to act and explore possible options to reinforce the defensive line in the mid-season trading period. A left-footed centre-back would be Barcelona's preferred target, leading to links with Marcos Senesi and Nicolas Otamendi, among others.

"Mentally, I'm doing well. I've always been a very focused guy. They have helped me a lot at home. "The desire to keep improving also helps. It's difficult to do it every three days, but if you give it your all, you'll always be rewarded."

Barcelona are reportedly set to sign a new center-back in the summer transfer window in a bid to boost Hansi Flick's backline. A new report now claims there Barca have added two more names to their list of targets in the shape of Wolfsburg's Konstantinos Koulierakis and Luka Vuskovic who is at Hamburg (but on loan from Tottenham). The two youngsters are shining in the Bundesliga and their performances mean they seem to have caught the eye of the Catalan giants.

Girona are preparing for one of the most ambitious moves in their history, and it centres on one of the biggest names in Spanish football. According to a recent report from Mundo Deportivo, the Catalan side is ready to go all out in their attempt to sign Marc-Andre ter Stegen if even the smallest window of opportunity opens up. Girona are fully aware that landing a goalkeeper of Ter Stegen's calibre would represent a transformative moment for the club.

Under La Liga regulations, Barcelona are allowed to sign and register a replacement player if the injured footballer is expected to be out for four months or more. This forecast must be supported by a medical report approved by the competition's Medical Commission. Barcelona have up to 20 days to request the registration of a replacement once the Medical Commission issues a favourable report, and they can use up to 80% of the injured player's salary.

I don't know if Tottenham only sees him as a future player or if they would be open to a transfer if he received an adequate offer,

Barcelona have reportedly made contact with Juventus star Dusan Vlahovic in a bid to try and sign him in the summer transfer window after his contract expires. A new report from Marca states that Barcelona have "already made a move to acquire the services of Vlahovic" and are hoping to land the 25-year-old. Vlahovic has been linked with Barcelona many times before, with former technical secretary Ramon Planes having previously admitted the Catalans tried to bring him in on loan.

Barcelona's already complicated search for defensive reinforcements in January appears to have suffered another setback, with a report from SPORT pointing towards what is effectively the end of the road in their pursuit of Nathan Ake. Ake had emerged as a serious option for Barcelona as they explored short-term solutions to reinforce the back line. The Dutch international is open to leaving Manchester City, and the idea of playing for Barça was particularly appealing to him.
