Levante’s Aitor Fernandez on Barca’s radar

Barcelona is hoping to add more depth to their goalkeeping department and is keenly looking at Levante’s Aitor Fernandez for the job in the ongoing summer transfer window. The 30-year-old Levante’s player could be a potential target for Barcelona as they hunt for a replacement for their second-choice goalkeeper Neto. Fernandez was hoping for a first-team appearance after moving from Bilbao to the Basque outfit, before he moved to Villarreal, he thought could only secure a Team B move and spent two years with Numancia. After moving to Levante in 2018 his performance saw a visible improvement.

In his 88 outings for Levante, he has kept 11 clean sheets and enjoyed the league-high 158 saves in the 2019/20 campaign, his success rate stood at an impressive 76%. But with Dani Cardenas in the lineup, his game time saw a great decline, and has since expressed his desire to move.
