Barcelona is reportedly reassigning several key players, including Lewandowski and Ter Stegen, to Premier League clubs as they aim to balance their books.
Barcelona is undergoing a significant squad reshuffle as financial pressures force the club to offload several high-profile players. Reports suggest that star striker Robert Lewandowski is set to join Liverpool, while goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen could be heading to Manchester United as a replacement for Andre Onana. These moves come as Barcelona seeks to balance their finances after making expensive signings, including goalkeeper Joan Garcia for £21 million and a near-complete deal for Athletic Club's Nico Williams at £50 million.
Ter Stegen, 33, has reportedly been told to find a new club after Barcelona secured Garcia. Despite his age, the German goalkeeper remains a valuable asset, with Manchester United showing keen interest. However, his £21 million valuation may deter other suitors like Chelsea, who recently hesitated over a similar price for AC Milan's Mike Maignan.
Meanwhile, defender Andreas Christensen is being linked with a move to Newcastle United. The 29-year-old, who played a pivotal role in Chelsea's 2021 Champions League victory, is seen as a strong addition to Eddie Howe's squad. With Fabian Schar turning 34 later this year, Christensen could fill a crucial defensive role for the Magpies.
Ronald Araujo, Barcelona's club captain, is another player attracting Premier League interest. Despite his desire to stay, reports indicate that Barcelona may accept offers around £38 million for the Uruguayan defender. Both Bayern Munich and Manchester United are rumored to be in the running for his signature.
Young talents Marc Casado and Fermin Lopez are also on the radar of Premier League clubs. Casado, a 21-year-old midfielder, could join Arsenal, while Lopez is reportedly being monitored by Manchester City, Chelsea, and Liverpool. However, his fit within these squads remains uncertain.
