Omar Marmoush on Barcelona's radar
While the Egyptian international is not actively pushing for an exit, he is believed to be seeking more minutes and could discuss his situation with the club at the end of the season.
Meanwhile, Barcelona have also begun preparing for life without Robert Lewandowski next season, as they look for long-term replacements for the Polish hitman.
According to Caughtoffside, although Julián Álvarez has been considered, his price makes Marmoush a more realistic target for the Catalan side.
City are expected to demand between €60–65 million if they decide to sanction a summer departure, with other European clubs also monitoring developments.
Barcelona's reported interest in Osimhen
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that Victor Osimhen has emerged as a transfer target for FC Barcelona, with the Catalan side reportedly considering a summer move for the striker.
The former Napoli forward has strengthened his reputation as one of Europe’s most reliable attackers, particularly after finishing as Serie A’s top scorer during the 2022/23 season.
