An operation is being prepared on the FC Barcelona side, aimed at poaching Fabian Ruiz. The PSG midfielder could be exchanged with a Blaugrana player.
The summer transfer window ended less than two weeks ago, but some clubs already have their sights set on what they plan to do this winter. This is the case of FC Barcelona, which is reportedly not entirely satisfied with its summer purchases. While sporting director Deco told the press on Tuesday that he felt his squad was sufficiently strong for the season, the music behind the scenes is reportedly not the same. So much so that a very specific reinforcement is being targeted.
This Thursday, Sport mentioned the Barça midfielder. The Spanish media confirmed that the Catalan club was working on strengthening this sector and that several names were regularly coming up. That of Joshua Kimmich, whose contract ends next June and who has still not extended with Bayern Munich, is one of them. All the more solid since the German international would be reunited with his former coach in Bavaria, Hansi Flick, in Barcelona.
De Jong in exchange
But one of the most studied leads for the moment would be the one leading to Fabian Ruiz. Playing a little less than last year, the Paris Saint-Germain midfielder is of great interest in Spain. Already mentioned on the Real Madrid side, this time it is Barça who would be tempted by his profile. The player’s performances with the Spanish selection, victorious at Euro 2024, speak in his favor. According to Sportthe Blaugrana recruitment cell would be thinking about a montage including a certain Frenkie de Jong.
A hypothesis also taken up by Sports Stadium. According to both media outlets, FC Barcelona would be ready to offer an exchange to PSG, even if it means adding a few extra euros. This is not the first time that Barça has thought about parting ways with its Dutch midfielder who had already refused to leave two seasons ago. There is still a long way to go to see such a deal happen, but Barcelona seems to believe in it.
