Barcelona's New Signing Could Be Aymeric Laporte
It is no secret that since the arrival of Xavi Hernández, Barcelona has started to enhance different positions to simulate the performances that Pep Guardiola's arrival meant a few years ago. That is why a new signing is looming for the summer season in Europe.
Aymeric Laporte
Aymeric Laporte has lost ground in Manchester City and has requested to leave the club. The center-back wants a change of scenery as he has lost prominence and his ideal destination would be the blue and garnet entity, which is also favorable to his incorporation.

The Spaniard has a contract until 2025 and even spoke with the top executives of Manchester City, receiving a positive response. Now, it only remains for both clubs to agree on the costs that should not be too high to make his return to Spain possible.
What is the only problem? Manchester City will have to allow his departure for an affordable amount after the player expressed his desire to play in Barcelona. Another crucial point is whether Barcelona's financial fair play situation makes the operation feasible.
If Aymeric Laporte's arrival is finalized, Barcelona could have its first left-footed central defender. For now, the need forces Marcos Alonso to assume that role in many matches.
