Next summer, Barcelona is anticipated to make a move for a new holding midfield player. Oriol Romeu has failed to get any playing time over the past few months due to his underwhelming performance since moving from Girona. It is preferred to have a younger option who has the potential to develop as Barcelona's only pivot for many years to come. Sporting Director Deco has shown great admiration for the 18-year-old Brazilian midfielder, Gabriel Moscardo, who has been one of the front-runners to take this position.

Nevertheless, Moscardo will not be joining Barcelona, as Fabrizio Romano has revealed that an agreement has been reached for the teenager's signing by Paris Saint-Germain. They have agreed to pay Corinthians €20 million, plus a further €2 million. Sadly, Barcelona's continuous financial issues prevent them from competing with teams like PSG. They keep looking for a pivot, and there aren't many players on the lengthy list that they can sign.
