Barcelona Navigates Transfer Market Amid Financial Woes

Barcelona is facing a busy transfer period with multiple players linked to potential moves. Frenkie de Jong remains committed to the club despite interest from PSG, Manchester United, and Borussia Dortmund, although financial pressures may lead to a sale if the right offer arises. Meanwhile, Barcelona is eyeing Manchester United's Marcus Rashford as a quality attacker amidst concerns about Robert Lewandowski's future, with United reportedly asking for £40 million. The club is also considering offloading Eric Garcia in January as they prepare for the return of Andreas Christensen, while simultaneously eyeing Bayer Leverkusen's Jonathan Tah for a summer acquisition. Financial constraints may limit Barcelona's activity in the winter window, with hopes pinned on signing 17-year-old Antonio Cordero from Malaga, although confidence in securing this deal is low. Lastly, left-back Alejandro Balde's performance has prompted Barcelona to seek a new signing, with interest in Benfica's Alvaro Fernandez Carreras, who has a €42m release clause.
