FC Barcelona are clear about their shortcomings within the squad and the reinforcements they must face for the summer market, but what is not known is whether the club will have the capital to pay for the arrival of quality signings. The most urgent movement is the signing of an enormous quality containment team that can fill the void left by Busquets last year. And although countless names have been mentioned, at this point the one that is liked the most and is also considered accessible is Mikel Merino.

The newspaper Sport reports that the sports area has chosen the signing of Mikel Merino to strengthen the midfield this summer. The Real Sociedad star ends his contract with the San Sebastián team next year, and by not having renewed his price he suffers a significant reduction. This being the case, the Barcelona board estimates that the transfer will be closed around a fixed figure of 2 million euros plus additional variables depending on the Spaniard’s performance.
Although, the first factor why Barcelona people opt for Mikel Merino over Joshua Kimmich or other names on the list is the financial issue, within the club they consider that the signing of Mikel would not have any sporting demerit. The Spanish player knows LaLiga perfectly, he is a guy with outstanding physical potential, he can come and go for 90 minutes and also has both the ability to recover the ball and the talent to play from the back. A profile that would fit the requirements requested by Hansi Flick.
