Barcelona are still working to close out the summer transfer window as strong as they can. One of their key objectives, according to Diario Sport, is a new right-back. One option that’s becoming more and more attractive to them is Hector Bellerin.
Bellerin is back at Arsenal after spending last season on loan at Real Betis – who are also keen on signing him but are in financial issues themselves. He’d be a lower-cost option than Villarreal defender Juan Foyth, who’s thought to cost a fee of €42m.
Another player Barcelona have an eye on is Borussia Dortmund right-back Thomas Meunier, but the German club aren’t keen to allow the Belgian to depart with such little time to bring in a replacement before the summer window closes next week. That’s where Bellerin comes in – the Spaniard has spent the majority of his career at Arsenal despite beginning his career with Barcelona.
