Barcelona sporting director Jordi Cruyff has admitted the club are unlikely to bring in any new players in the January transfer window due to their ongoing financial difficulties.
All of which means the club’s focus seems to have shifted from signings to contract extensions, according to the latest reports.
Mundo Deportivo reckon that Barca want to secure the futures of Inaki Pena, Alejandro Balde and top prospect Lamine Yamal in the winter window.
There’s a similar report in Diario Sport although the names are slightly different.
Sport reckons Barca’s top priorities are registering Gavi as a first-team player, updating La Liga with Ronald Araujo’s new deal and extending Balde’s contract.
