The Barcelona sporting director is considering asking Ajax about their position

Lisandro Martínez is back on the scene at Futbol Club Barcelona. The club like the Argentine defender and sporting director Mateu Alemany is deciding whether it's necessary to travel to Amsterdam to open talks with Ajax to find out their position on a pssible transfer.

Lisandro has been linked with Barça for several years. The left-sided centre-back has been at a good level for a while now and Barça have good reports on him from the games they have watched him live.

Any operation would not be easy, though, because he has a contract until 2025. Therefore, Ajax would likely command a decent fee and signing another central defender is not among Barça's priorities at the moment.

So far this season, Lisandro has played 24 games in the Eredivisie and scored one goal, setting up three more. He's good on the ball and would add strength and depth at the back as Barça look to replace Lenglet and Umtiti.
