Barcelona is having an irregular season and ties such as the one suffered against Betis in the last minute have left their mark. This type of result has caused concern among fans and club directors.
Barcelona president Joan Laporta hasn't taken long to react and has decided to strengthen the team in order to improve the competitiveness of the squad. Barcelona is looking to strengthen its squad and one of the most mentioned names is Bryan Zaragoza, considered the "new Vinícius Júnior" of La Liga.
Barça and Its Shortcomings in the Squad
One of the main concerns for FC Barcelona this season has been the lack of depth in its squad. While Bayern has a great lineup, Barcelona struggles when it comes to making rotations.
The difference between starters and substitutes affects team performance, especially in the event of injuries or demanding matches. This has led Laporta to think about new transfers to reinforce this aspect.
Bryan Zaragoza: a gem to be reckoned with
One of the players who stands out the most on Barça's list of possible transfers is Bryan Zaragoza. He is a young winger who's currently on loan at Osasuna. Formerly from Granada, Zaragoza was signed by Bayern for 15 million euros but didn't adapt and didn't get the expected minutes.
However, his loan to Osasuna has allowed him to recover his best shape. Right now he stands out as one of the most important players in the red attack.
At 23, Zaragoza has shown great potential in La Liga, standing out for his ability to get to the back line and assist the forwards. So far this season, he's scored one goal against Barcelona and provided five assists, which proves his ability to unbalance during offensive plays.
The Possible Arrival at Barça
Barcelona has been closely following Bryan Zaragoza's progress. According to various sources, the club would be willing to sign him if the price doesn't exceed 30 million euros. Zaragoza is looking his arrival at Barça favorably. He has friends in the locker room and Hansi Flick considers him a great professional.
Bryan Zaragoza has the chance to make the step up to a top-level club, and Barça could be the ideal destination for his development. Although negotiations will be difficult, Zaragoza is a great talent in La Liga and could make the difference at Barça.
