One of the big priorities for Barcelona sporting director Deco in the upcoming summer transfer window is the signing of a new defensive midfielder. The departure of Sergio Busquets and the poor performances of Oriol Romeu have forced the improvisation of Andreas Christensen in the crucial “pivot” position, and the club’s number one job is the signing of a high-level player for that role.
Many names have been linked with the position for months now, but according to Mundo Deportivo the club have now settled on a list of seven targets who range from dream signings to low-cost options and all have, in the club’s mind, the quality needed to make a decisive improvement in a position of need for Barça.
