Barcelona’s plans to strengthen its squad have taken a new turn with the recent offer of Christopher Nkunku, made to the club by his agent, Pini Zahavi, reports SPORT.
Nkunku, who has struggled to excel at Chelsea, is looking to leave the Premier League side. He wants to regain the form that made him one of the most sought-after players.
Zahavi, who has a strong relationship with Barcelona, has offered the French striker on loan, suggesting a move that could be beneficial for both parties.
What is Barcelona’s position?
Nkunku’s possible transfer to Barcelona is seen as an interesting option, especially in view of his next sporting project, which aims to strengthen the full-back position.
The player’s agent has even indicated that Nkunku could be open to adjusting his salary to fit Barcelona’s budget. However, Barcelona’s financial situation remains complicated and it does not plan to enter the transfer market in January.
Despite this, Barcelona is closely monitoring the situation, as it sees Nkunku as a player with significant offensive potential.
Reports from England indicate that both Barcelona and Italian side Napoli are closely monitoring Nkunku’s situation. Although no important steps have yet been taken, Barcelona is aware of the possibility.
A loan agreement is something they might consider, especially since it wouldn’t require a large financial investment.
There are other options too
Zahavi, who also represents Hansi Flick and Robert Lewandowski, has been actively involved in promoting the Nkunku option.
It should be noted that Barcelona’s main priority remains to get a winger who can contribute goals and help create chances.
Big names such as Napoli’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford and AC Milan’s Rafael Leao have been mentioned as potential targets.
However, these players would require a substantial investment that Barcelona may not be able to afford.
For now, the club is gathering information on all available options and weighing up whether a move for Nkunku would be more financially viable than pursuing one of the more expensive alternatives.
