Barça are considering whether to make a move for free agent Malang Sarr

The defender's contract expired with Nice this summer and has been linked with a move to Arsenal

FC Barcelona's financial situation means they aren't able to make any significant signings until they've moved on a few players first. The only options available right now are cheap deals or players available on a free transfer.

That is where the name of Malang Sarr comes in. The French defender's contract expired with Nice last month and he's now looking for a new challenge. At just 21, he's capable of filling in at centre back or at full-back, and is considered one of the brightest promises in France. He rejected the opportunity to prolong his stay with Nice and is now attracting interest from Arsenal and Barça according to the 'Daily Mail'.

Sarr made his professional debut at the age of 17, becoming the second-youngest debutant in the history of Ligue 1 at the time. He made 32 appearances in his first official season and already has 119 senior career appearances to his name which showcases Sarr's maturity.
