Barcelona thinking about selling a key defender next summer

Barcelona are reportedly considering selling a center-back next summer after deciding to bring Chadi Riad back from Real Betis.

The club have already told Betis and Riad that they want him to return after seeing him impress with Los Verdiblancos.

Diario Sport reckon that Riad’s return means Barcelona could sell one of Ronald Araujo, Jules Kounde or Andreas Christensen.

The club know they need to make a big sale in 2024, for financial reasons, and will listen to offers for their center-backs.

Inigo Martinez won’t be sold as he won’t command a high transfer fee due to his age, which means Araujo, Kounde or Christensen could be on the move.
