The “new” Barcelona: the four signings that the club prepares to surround Lionel Messi

With three months to go before the opening of the transfer market, the club has already started planning reinforcements for next seasonThe defeat at Santiago Bernabéu 2-0 against Real Madrid left in evidence some tactical issues that did not go unnoticed when analyzing the game of Barcelona: Lionel Messi is very lonely.

With the absence of Luis Suarez and the presence of Jordi Alba decimated by an injury that did not allow him to be 100%, the Barca star did not have great partners and was seen repeatedly going to look for the ball very low and even playing for the left band.

That is why from Spain they revealed that the club is preparing a series of signings so that the Argentine captain can enjoy and be competitive in his last years at the club.This was confirmed by the Barcelona newspaper Sport , who said that the board will go for four signings for June 2020 . Two defenders and two strikers will be preferences when closing contracts.

As for the attack, the club culé will look for a striker who is able to play for the band and another with characteristics purely of a nine area, who would begin to take over from Luis Suarez.

There are already names for those two positions. The attacker for the band is none other than Neymar, who turned out to be one of the best partners of the Argentine and with whom he even established a friendship outside the field of play. It should be noted that the Brazilian was one of the objectives in the past transfer market, but the operation failed to materialize due to economic issues.

The center forward is also already chosen, however it will be necessary to see what are the demands that the club or the player himself will ask for when starting to negotiate. Lautaro Martínez, of Inter, is the candidate to relieve one of the greatest scorers that had the history of the club, Luis Suárez.In the last line, Barcelona will be campaigning to find a partner for the Flea , as was Dani Alves , who left for Juventus in 2016. Since then, it was several names that passed through the right side of the field without success. Sergi Roberto and Semedo are the last to occupy that sector , doing a neat job in defense but almost null in attack.

Finally, a central defender will also be considered . Although the club has three renowned soccer players (Gerard Piqué, Samuel Umtiti and Clement Lenglet), a fourth player will be found who is able to rotate with the holders to give breaks.
