Barca eye Bayern Munich defender Niklas Sule

Barcelona became the latest team to join the Bayern Munich centre-back Niklas Sule race this season. The Germany international just has six more months left in his contract with the Bundesliga Champions, but his skills have caught the eye of top clubs of Europe with the likes of Chelsea, Real Madrid, and even Newcastle United all keeping tabs on Sule for now. Barcelona has a newfound interest in the player as they focus on the free transfer market due to their financial struggles.

Barca would have to convince the towering defender to make him move to Camp Nou while Bayern is still hoping to lock him down for more time but worry about the growing interest in their defender. Barca is searching for a new centre-back to bolster their squad as they lose their stature in La Liga after an underwhelming season which sees them struggling at the sixth place behind teams like Real Betis, Real Sociedad.
