FC Barcelona is not ruling out strengthening its defense this summer, with a left-back as a priority. Hansi Flick left the door open for a potential departure of Alejandro Balde or Jules Koundé, which would allow the club to seek a central defender. Castello Lukeba (23 years old), from RB Leipzig, is the preferred option of the coach, although his price is high and depends on an important sale. For the left-back position, Jorge Salinas (19 years old) from Racing is also an option. The young Frenchman, with a contract until June 2029, has characteristics such as power and speed to strengthen the defense. For the left-back, Salinas is valued at 16 million euros, but his arrival also depends on the club's financial mobility. The final decision will depend on whether a key sale occurs, allowing Barcelona to act in the transfer market.
