Barcelona have started to look at possible signings that could be added to Hansi Flick\u2019s squad during next summer\u2019s transfer window. There is a need for a new left-sided central defender, and with their latest target, they are thinking outside of the box.<\/p>\n

The departure of Inigo Martinez, who joined Al-Nassr in the summer, has affected Barcelona, who no longer have a natural left-sided option in defence. The plan is for this to be rectified in 2026, and so far, they have drawn up a shortlist featuring several names.<\/p>\n

Goncalo Inacio features highly, although Sporting CP have no plans to let him leave<\/a>. Marc Guehi is also a target, but given the club\u2019s lack of financial muscle, there is scope to suggest that a younger, low-cost option may be brought in instead \u2013 and that is where Davide Bartesaghi could come in.<\/p>\n

According to MilanLive (via Sport<\/a>), Barcelona are keeping tabs on Bartesaghi, who is also attracted interest from Arsenal. The 19-year-old has broken into the Milan starting line-up in recent weeks, and although he has featured as a left-back\/left wing-back, the Catalans believe that he could be moulded into a central defender.<\/p>\n

Bartesaghi could be a shrewd move for Barcelona<\/h2>\n

It would make little sense for Barcelona to target Bartesaghi as a left-back, given that they have Alejandro Balde, Gerard Martin and Jofre Torrents in that area of the pitch. And as a centre-back, it could be a good option, even if he hasn\u2019t featured in the position since making the step up to the Rossoneri first team.<\/p>\n

However, it could be tricky to get Milan to do business as a price that Barcelona would find acceptable, given his age and developing squad status. But for now, this is a situation that is worth keeping an eye on.<\/p>\n
