Barcelona weighs a movement for a new goalkeeper in the summer – Report

The debate surrounding the goalkeeper post in FC Barcelona was apparently established last weekend when Hansi Flick and his coaching staff made the decision to go with Wojciech Szczesny about Inaki Pena.

However, what has done doubts about the future of Inaki Pena in Barça, given that his contract expires in 2026 and renewal conversations have not yet progressed.

Since Wojciech Szczesny’s contract also expired at the end of the season, it could have an impact on Barcelona’s transfer plans for the summer.

Barcelona Consider the reinforcement of goalkeepers

In fact, according to Sport, the Barcelona Sports Department is now arguing to sign a high quality goalkeeper for next June.

Although nothing is over, the idea of ​​making a bold movement to address future concerns with the acquisition of a goalkeeper who can properly replace Marc-Andre Ter Stegen is gaining ground.

However, Pena, which was negotiating a contract renewal, can now stop the process and consider a way out since it is beginning to realize that it will not have many opportunities to play in Barcelona.

Meanwhile, Barcelona will have conversations with Szczesny to understand their intentions for the future.

The club would not oppose its stay for another year, since it has been wanted on the team, but the goalkeeper made clear from the beginning that he only intended to stay for a few months.

As such, if he decides not to continue, they will seek to sign a new goalkeeper. The plan is not to sign a top -level southern, but rather promising with a strong potential, which can be the substitute for Ter Stegen.

The confidence in the German goalkeeper is still strong and has a long -term contract.

Therefore, Barcelona is already exploring market options for goalkeepers with potential, who would be willing to accept the support role to Ter Stegen, with the possibility of overcoming it depending on performance.
