Barcelona are thought to be keen to add Mikayil Faye to the first-team squad for next season after seeing the defender impress with Rafa Marquez’s Barca Atletic.
The only problem is that it may be difficult to find room for the Senegal international in the senior squad due to the overabundance of defenders.
Xavi already has Pau Cubarsi, Ronald Araujo, Jules Kounde, Andreas Christensen and Inigo Martinez to choose from which doesn’t leave much room for another defender.
While Kounde has been playing at right-back, and Christensen in midfield, it’s not certain if that will still be the case next season.
