The club want to strengthen in defence and add a top quality No.9

Barcelona want to make at least four signings this summer. The first will be Andreas Christensen. The Chelsea defender is already tied down. The other three will be a striker, presumably Erling Haaland, a midfielder (Franck Kessie), and a centre-back or a full-back, depending on departures.

In attack, Haaland is the top target, but if he doesn't come, Barça will sign a No.9 anyway. There are various options and no one player has been singled out yet. A decision will be made once more is known about Haaland's future.

In midfield, right now Barça are only working on Kessie. The Milan player is out of contract and can join for free. Barça hope to close an agreement for the Ivorian. If they don't, it's not guaranteed they will sign a midfielder. It will depend on the options.

Finally, the club want another full-back or centre-back, or even both. Cesar Azpilicueta has been chosen, but we will have to see if the experienced Spain defender will finally join from Chelsea, who have an option to extend his current deal, which expires in the summer.

From there, we will have to see if Barça add a fifth or even a sixth signing. These movements will depend on the exit operation.
