No late moves – Barcelona consider the winter transfer market closed | OneFootball

The deadline day of the January transfer window is finally upon us, with all eyes on Barcelona and whether or not they make any last-minute deals.

Throughout the month, Barça have been linked with many deals, with the likes of Ansu Fati and Eric Garcia being subjected to a move away from the club.

Alex Valle, meanwhile, has joined Como on a loan deal while La Masia superstar Unai Hernandez has opted for a surprise move to Al Ittihad.

On the flip side, Barcelona have been linked with a move for Marcus Rashford all January, but the forward has recently joined Aston Villa.

No more movements in the market

With the clock ticking, many expect Barcelona to make some surprise moves in the last few hours of the market.

But as reported by SPORT, it appears the Catalans consider the transfer market closed and are not expected to make any new movements in the market.

Unless something drastic happens, coach Hansi Flick is expected to retain the same squad until the end of the season.

While it is true that Flick had demanded the board to make at least one offensive signing, it was dependent on some players leaving the club, which did not go through.

Instead, Barcelona’s priority in January was to secure the future of their top players by announcing new deals. They didn’t disappoint either, announcing renewals of Ronald Araujo, Pedri and Gavi, to name a few.

Barcelona’s priority now is to complete the renewal of Frenkie de Jong, who has had a spring in his step in recent weeks.

As for the transfer market dealings, Barcelona will only move in the summer transfer window, which is going to be a busy one for the Blaugrana.
