The winter market could bring interesting movements within FC Barcelona

Not only because of the already confirmed desire of the club to incorporate a new offensive midfielder (Philippe Coutinho, Mesut Özil or Ángel di María are still being talked about), but also because of the possibility that several members of the current squad may leave the club.

In this sense, the most mentioned name is Arda Turan. Still unused so far this season, the Turkish player seems completely disconnected from what is happening in a Catalan team that has acknowledged the serious mistake made with his signing and seems determined to find him a new club for a much lower price than what was invested in his transfer. However, as reported by Sport, no serious proposals for the Turkish player have been received yet, which would suggest an easy departure.

On the other hand, Aleix Vidal has been receiving offers. Although he has had some prominence in recent weeks, the player from Tarragona is still considered a substitute player, which has led the board to consider his sale in January. Sevilla and several clubs from Serie A are following his steps and could offer attractive amounts.

The third player on the spotlight is Thomas Vermaelen. However, in his case, the fact that Barça is short on center-backs (they have four including the Belgian) makes it difficult for his departure to happen, unless the defender expressly requests it and brings an interesting proposal with him.
