When FC Barcelona kicked off their transfer window by signing one of Europe's best goalkeepers in the form of Joan Garcia, a 24-year-old goalkeeper from Espanyol, many were rubbing their hands and predicting a very busy summer in Catalonia.

Although it is true that they would be willing to negotiate a loan with an option to buy.
In any case, Barça is looking for alternatives. While the name of Christopher Nkunku (Chelsea) came out this weekend , El Chiringuito has announced that Barça is interested in Bryan Zaragoza , the eccentric 23-year-old winger belonging to Bayern Munich . A Spanish international (3 caps, 1 goal), he has caught the eye of the Catalans and would be a much cheaper option than those mentioned above. There have already been contacts with the player's entourage, and it would be necessary to reach an agreement with Bayern, which should not pose too many problems since it does not count on the player...
