Barcelona look to have found a potential solution to their centre-back crisis by reportedly agreeing a deal that will see Valencia defender Jeison Murillo move to Camp Nou on loan in January.
Thomas Vermaelen was recently ruled out of action for around a month with a muscle injury, while Samuel Umtiti has also been sidelined with knee trouble. With Gerard Pique and Clement Lenglet the only available first team centre-backs, it has highlighted a startling lack of depth.
Barça have been linked with a number of options as a result, including Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany and out-of-favour Chelsea youngster Andreas Christensen.
