Barcelona eyes former PSG duo as Gavi replacement in Winter transfer Window
As Barcelona seeks a replacement for the sidelined Gavi for the remainder of the season, the club has identified two former Paris Saint-Germain players as potential targets for the upcoming winter transfer window.
Gavi, the 19-year-old talent, faces a significant setback with a complete anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture in his right knee, coupled with an external meniscus injury.
This injury rules him out for the season and jeopardizes his participation in Euro 2024 with Spain.
Behind the scenes, Barcelona is actively exploring options to secure a player capable of stepping into Gavi’s role during his absence.
Amid considerations of various players, including Kalvin Phillips, Renato Sanches, and Thomas Partey, Barcelona has shifted its focus to two former PSG midfielders.
According to reports from the Spanish Daily Sport, Adrien Rabiot and Marco Verratti are the latest names on Barcelona’s radar.
Rabiot, the 27-year-old French midfielder, is approaching the end of his contract with Juventus in 2024.
With uncertainties surrounding a contract extension with the Bianconeri, Barcelona sees an opportune moment to make a move.
Additionally, the club is monitoring Marco Verratti, who recently made a move to Al-Arabi in Qatar.
However, bringing him back to Europe would necessitate a significant alignment of circumstances, even if Barcelona proposes a loan deal.
