"FC Barcelona are scouring the market for defensive reinforcements both for the upcoming January transfer window and later for the summer. Andreas Christensen's recent injury has left the team looking for a player to add depth in the position, with reports suggesting that the club are leaning towards signing a young talent with great potential and a bright future ahead. The Blaugrana are reportedly tracking Luka Vuskovic and Konstantinos Koulierakis, although a January move for either looks difficult."
"According to Sport.fr, Barcelona are among a plethora of top European clubs tracking the progress of Croatian talent Branimir Mlacic. Just 18 years old, the centre-back is enjoying his breakthrough season at Hajduk Split, making 18 first-team appearances so far. The central defender, who stands at a towering 1.92 m, has one appearance for the Croatian U-21 national team, after having played twice for the U-19 side."
FC Barcelona require defensive reinforcements for the upcoming January window and the summer after Andreas Christensen's injury created a depth issue. The club is prioritizing young players with long-term potential and has monitored Luka Vuskovic and Konstantinos Koulierakis, although January moves for them seem unlikely. Barcelona are tracking 18-year-old Branimir Mlacic, who has made 18 first-team appearances for Hajduk Split. Mlacic is 1.92 m tall, has one Croatia U-21 cap and two U-19 appearances, and combines physical presence, pace, ball skills, maturity, and strong positioning. Marseille, Real Madrid and Inter Milan are also interested; Marseille intends to sign him in January and loan him back, which could complicate Barcelona's pursuit.
