FC Barcelona still has at least two very important challenges ahead of it this season: the Champions League tie against PSG and the Clásico against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu. However, in the club offices they are already moving thinking about the next campaign.
As pointed out from Sports world, one of the main objectives is to reinforce the midfield and Deco would already have the name of 7 candidates on his list to occupy the midfield position. And, after the departure of Sergio Busquets, Barcelona has not been able to fill the gap left by the captain.

Below we will see the possible candidates to be the midfielder of FC Barcelona next season, according to the needs and interest of the Barça club.
Aleix García already knows LaLiga, he is showing exceptional performance with Girona and his price would not exceed 15 million. Furthermore, since Sports world They point out that the operation could become cheaper if Girona accepts that players be included in the transfer.
However, Aleix does not fit 100% with the team's needs, as they are looking for a more physical player who can perform in more defensive positions.
It is not the most liked within Barcelona but it is one of the most affordable options. The player's contract ends in June and Arsenal have not yet exercised the option to renew him for another year. If the player leaves the club as a free agent, it is an interesting option.
The French player is an interesting option who has been rumored for several days as a possible reinforcement for Barcelona, although he is not 100% convincing since his qualities do not quite fit with what Barcelona is looking for.
Thuram has one year left on his contract with Nice and at the moment it seems that Barcelona would have no competition for his services.
The 29-year-old player already knows what it is like to play in LaLiga after his time at Celta de Vigo. Precisely during his time in the Galician team, he was already linked to Barcelona. Sports world He points out that his agent has maintained contacts with Deco so that he lands in Barcelona.
Lobotka has a contract with Napoli until 2027, plus an optional contract, and his starting price is around 50 million euros.
Amadou Onana is having a good season at Everton. The midfielder of Senegalese origin stands out for his physique and could be a good option to cover Barcelona's needs. However, to sign him the Catalans will have to overcome two obstacles. The first of them is the competition, since other major European companies have been interested in Onana, and the second is the price. Everton is asking for 60 million, an amount that Barcelona considers excessive.
Martín Zubimendi is one of Barcelona's great desires but his signing is more than complicated. The player is a fundamental pillar in Real Sociedad and they are not going to let him leave for a low price.
At 25 years old, he has a great present and future ahead of him. Zubimendi has a contract until 2027 and his termination clause is 60 million. To achieve his signing, Laporta needs to activate some lever.
Along with Zubimendi, Joshua Kimmich is the other great favorite within Barcelona to occupy the midfield position. However, they face the same problem: the price.
Kimmich is not happy with his situation at Bayern and could leave the club this summer. Although his contract ends in 2025, he is sure that Bayern is not willing to give their player away.
