FC Barcelona appears to be on track to recruit Bayer Leverkusen central defender Jonathan Tah. The latter will be at the end of his contract next June. A decisive meeting between Barcelona sporting director Deco and the player’s agent, Pini Zahavi, was held recently in Cologne, reinforcing the hypothesis of a transfer as early as this summer.
An opportunity for Barça
Eager to take on a new challenge, Jonathan Tah, 28, benefits from the support of his compatriot and Barça coach, Hansi Flick, who fully approves of his arrival. According to Sky Germany And Jijantesthis meeting was considered positive by both parties. The experience of Pini Zahavi, accustomed to complex transactions, could speed up the discussions.
This operation would allow FC Barcelona to recruit a high-level player without transfer compensation. A crucial point for the club, looking for solid defensive options without increasing its payroll. For its part, Bayern Munich is also closely monitoring developments in this matter.
