Barcelona are looking to strengthen this summer in spite of their financial difficulties, and will look to make a number of additions. One of the major surprises is that they will look to bring in a forward, despite signing Vitor Roque in January.

However they will also look for a major signing in the position, with Joshua Kimmich and Amadou Onana their preferred choices. Kimmich is an old request of Xavi Hernandez’s, as per Relevo, and any chance of signing him depends on whether Bayern Munich can agree a new deal with him this summer. Onana looks far from possible, as Everton are demanding €60-70m as it stands, and Chelsea are also in the frame.
