New FC Barcelona boss Hansi Flick wants to beef up the middle of the pitch, and his ideal signing is a former pupil: Joshua Kimmich.
Flick knows Kimmich very well from his time at Bayern Munich and the German national team. Flick deployed him as both a right-back and a midfielder, depending on the circumstances.
The problem is financial: Barcelona will have a difficult time coming up with the money both for his salary and to pay in a transfer fee.
Guido Rodríguez has also been a target of the Catalans’, but at the moment there are rumors that he may not sign with Barcelona after all.
