Barcelona has finalized a list of five important summer transfer targets, three of whom are Premier League players.
In the following weeks, the Catalan club will undertake a massive roster revamp in order to close the gap on LaLiga and Champions League winners Real Madrid.
According to Marca, the Camp Nou hierarchy has a clear strategy for reorganizing Xavi's squad.
The Polish striker has made it obvious that he wants to leave Bayern Munich, therefore a trade for him remains their top priority.
Raphinha, a winger for Leeds, is a second attacking priority, though the West Yorkshire club is expected to demand a high sum for his services.
The ideal defensive recruits are Chelsea's Marcos Alonso and Cesar Azpilicueta, as well as Sevilla's Jules Kounde.
Despite the fact that the French international had surgery this week for a pelvis problem, Barca's LaLiga opponents will want a transfer fee of roughly £55 million.
Franck Kessie, an Ivorian midfielder, and Andreas Christensen, a Danish defender, have already agreed to join the club on a free transfer.
