Barcelona are linked with a move for Manchester City defender Josko Gvardiol as they continue squad strengthening. Barcelona have already agreed a deal for Anthony Gordon and are expected to make an offer for Atletico’s Julian Alvarez. Barcelona are also evaluating defensive options and are considering Gvardiol this summer. Gvardiol has one year remaining on his contract with Manchester City, and his ability to play both center-back and left-back is viewed as an advantage. Barcelona’s earlier defensive target Alessandro Bastoni appears unlikely, with interest cooled and Inter confirming they expect him to stay.
"Barcelona are being linked with a move for Manchester City defender Josko Gvardiol as attempts continue to strengthen the squad this summer. The Catalan giants have already agreed a deal for Anthony Gordon and are expected to make an offer for Atletico's Julian Alvarez shortly. Barcelona are also still thinking about their defence and are considering going for Gvardiol as well this summer, per Cadena SER."
"The defender only has one year left on his contract with the Cityzens and his ability to play at center-back or left-back is an attraction for Barca, according to the report. Barcelona's top target for their defence had been Alessandro Bastoni but that deal now seems to be off. The Catalans have cooled their interest and Inter have confirmed they now expect the Italy international to stay."
