Barcelona is close to finalizing the first deals of next summer, according to several reliable press reports published today, as the Catalan team seeks to strengthen its ranks and sign high-caliber stars.
Barcelona is preparing to face Athletic Bilbao in the La Liga competition next Sunday, and Barcelona wants victory to reduce the points difference between it and leaders Real Madrid.
Officials of the Spanish club Barcelona, headed by Joan Laporta, are close to signing a high-caliber deal during the upcoming summer transfer period of 2024, to strengthen the ranks of the Catalan team during the current season.
The Spanish newspaper “Sport” revealed that Malian striker Ibrahim Diarra has passed the medical examinations at FC Barcelona, and that the player made a big impact in the various training sessions in which he participated with the youth teams.
The newspaper added that FIFA requires the player to be 18 years old in order to sign with him, because he is from outside the European Union, which postpones the completion of the deal.
