Barcelona Eyes Amrabat Transfer, May Offload Kessie and Busquets to Fund Move

Will Barça "sell" Ivorian international Franck Kessie, currently in poor form, and Spaniard Sergio Busquets, whose contract expires at the end of the season? According to several sources, this option is possibly being considered. "If Busquets leaves, Barça will want to sign a replacement pivot, as there is no natural pivot in the first team other than the 34-year-old player. The name of Sofyan Amrabat has been mentioned. He excelled in this position in Qatar, and he certainly has the ability to do it in Catalonia," he analyzes. Barça failed at the last minute to recruit Moroccan international Sofyan Amrabat during the winter transfer window. But the Catalan club could come back for him this summer if and only if they sold Franck Kessie, analyzes mundodeportivo.com for its part.

Can the FC Barcelona executives really recruit a player this summer if they managed to "sell" Kessie and Busquets? On Thursday, the president of La Liga, Javier Tebas, said they will not be allowed to buy players in the next transfer window. It remains to be seen whether this decision will be maintained.
