The winter transfer window is still open, and one team that could be making some big moves is Barcelona. Reports suggest that Barcelona are eyeing up moves for Villarreal attacker Nicolas Jackson, Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic, and former Real Madrid forward Alvaro Morata....CONTINUE READING
If these three players were to sign for Barcelona, they could be set to make a huge impact at the Camp Nou. Let’s take a look at how Barcelona could lineup with these additions.
In goal, Barcelona could stick with their current number one, Marc-Andre ter Stegen. The German goalkeeper has been a rock between the sticks for the Catalan side and is one of the best goalkeepers in Europe.
In defense, Barcelona could line up with a back four of Jules Kounde, Ronald Araújo, Andreas Christensen, and Alejandro Balde. Kounde has been a revelation since his move from Sevilla and is now one of the best right-backs in Europe.
Araújo and Christensen have formed a formidable defensive partnership in the past, while Alejandro Balde is becoming one of the best left-backs in the world.
In midfield, Barcelona could deploy Frenkie de Jong and Sergio Busquets as their double pivot. De Jong has been a revelation since his move from Ajax and is now one of the best midfielders in the world, while Busquets is a seasoned veteran and still a key player for Barcelona.
On the wings, Barcelona could deploy Nicolas Jackson and Ousmane Dembele. Jackson has been one of the standout performers for Villarreal this season, while Dembele has been in good form since his return from injury.
Upfront, Barcelona could deploy Dusan Vlahovic and Alvaro Morata as their two strikers. Vlahovic has been in excellent form for Juventus, while Morata has been linked with a move back to his former club.
This lineup would give Barcelona a strong starting XI, with plenty of quality in attack, midfield, and defense. It would also give them a lot of options off the bench, which would be a huge boon for manager Xavi Hernandez.
If Barcelona were to sign these three players, they could be set to make a huge statement in the second half of the season. It could be just the boost they need to launch a title challenge and continue their pursuit of European glory.
